13 total, but I live in the Bay Area and go to Big Sur an average of once a month (going again tonight, actually), so I almost feel that those two shouldn't count.

I need to graduate and get a real job so that I can afford to travel more. Hoping to do IM New Zealand in 2010...

My list is now up to 17. I forgot that I had been to Petra as a child when we were missionaries in Jordan. Wow, how could I forget that. Riding in on camels. OMG

I agree, odd list.  Why St. Petersburg and not Moscow?  Anyway, I've been to 6 in US and 7 in world.

btw, saw your avatar in person a couple weeks ago.  Thought he was holding a bunch of grapes at first....
