Globe Trotting C list and beyond
C List The current list is really a discover America list, having been to all the cities I desired.
Upstate New York 2009 ♥♥♥♥1/2+ I needed to check this out if I was going to seek early retirement here to start writing my books.
Philadelphia 2007 ♥♥ America’s history so was worth the early morning start for a Christmas time day tripWashington 2008 ♥♥♥♥ More history….……actually who am I kidding. It’s all about the West Wing, the best drama ever made, along with my bizarre curiosity with the American presidency.
Chicago – would have been here or Dallas for my birthday this year if I was in the USADallasGrand CanyonSeattleVancouver IslandCarolina – north and southDetroitSouth – Buenos Aires
D list – all 50 US states?
Places I’ve been but was never really bothered about India – having said that, it’s my mother country so had I not gone when I was too young to really appreciate it, I would have wanted to go at least once. Alicante – only to visit a retired friend who has now married and moved to far flung and cold Eastern Canada Madrid – only to visit a friend and then again for her pre-wedding party. Barcelona is immensely better. Montreal – the most recent trip purely as its practical meeting place for a US outcast (me) and a New Yorker (my very good-natured boyfriend) Atlanta – a dull 24 hours here on route to New Orleans etc. Mobile was equally dull on the same trip. Places I was curious to go but curious no more – Paris, Dublin Underrated – Providence, Banff, Overrated – New Orleans Can’t wait to go back to – 1. San Francisco 2. Rhode Island 3. Washington 4. Vancouver Used to be on the maybe list but really not bothered now – Tokyo, Hong Kong Important days spent in New York Thanksgiving 1989/2008 Christmas 2005/06/07/08 New Year 2008 (although don’t/didn’t celebrate) St Patricks 2006/09 Easter 2007 Birthday 2008Halloween 2008(And Valentines 2009 although that’s not really ‘important’)July 4th – ah, that was meant to be 2009…..PS I remembered about Sicily, however, it's not on the list as it's my honeymoon destination. I'm saving it for if and when I get married again.
