I'm not much of a traveler (only been to 3)....and I like the strange small town America sites, like the world's biggest rubber band ball.   I will be trying to get to more....its a great list.

 

But why isn't Pittsburgh on that list?

My List is not that great either however

America

Mammoth Cave
Statue of Liberty

The World

St. Petersburg (see my album for some pictures)
Paris
Vancouver

To those that wondered, St Petersburg is a much more beautiful city than Moscow, however Red Square and the Kremlin is quite impressive.  I've been to a lot of places in the US just none that were on the list, huh.

You would love Australia - Oz is the Land Of Very Large Weird Stuff. I went to the Giant Pineapple, but not the Giant Bull's Balls. Oh, and a giant guitar, on the edge of Tamworth, their equivalent of Nashville. Read Bill Bryson for more, um, "resources." LOL!
