Hi,

The trip to Ireland and London was when I sold Insurance and I won that trip.

Also the cruise was a free trip! Lots of hard work selling policies but I did it.

I'm lucky. My father loved to travel so each summer we went on a road trip. I've been to all the states except Hawaii and Alaska, and I've been to Canada alot and old Mexico a few times. I also went on a 3 week tour of Europe for my second honeymoon. I'd love to go to Australia someday and back to Europe.

Wow! Let's see...as a kid, we would always go somewhere on weekends, then 2 weeks in the summer.
We traveled all of New England, up to the coast of Nova Scotia to the tip. Down to Virginia.
After I grew up, ok, I'm not all the way grown up...lol
I've traveled thru almost all of the states.
Haven't been to OR, IA, ID, NE, AK or WY
I've lived in RI (born and raised there), CT, Ga, HI, Guam,and Germany.

Visited ...
Cities around Germany when I lived there
Austria
Spain
Morocco
Canary Islands
Australia
Japan (Tokyo, Fukuoka, Sasebo, Yokosuka, and Misawa) I think there are a couple other little places, but can't remember the names.
Hong Kong
Singapore
Manila, Philipenes
and just got back from Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) (You get a HUGE sticker in your passport!)

I know I'm probably forgetting some, but brain is a bit foggy from packing.

I've been to Ireland also, it's a beautiful country. :) Went on a cruise for our honeymoon in the Caribbean - loved snorkling at St. John. Been to Ontario, WA, ID, TX, OH, but one of my favorite places to visit is "quilt country" Lancaster county, PA.

I was born in Alaska, spent 3 years in Germany, while there went to Switzerland, Holland, England, and Scotland. I have been all over Canada and every state in the US except Wyoming and Montana. I have been to Grand Caymen Islands, Puerto Rico, Mexico, and most of the Carribean Islands, and the Bahamas. Also, I almost forgot Panama Canal, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Jamaica, Columbia, Nicaragua.
