The Friday Five - travel

I love thefridayfive

1) What famous landmarks have you visited?
Too many to count, or even remember. A bunch in Boston, a lighthouse in Martha's Vineyard, Statue of Liberty, Twin Towers (back in 1989 I think), Empire State Building, Tanglewood, Mt. Washington, a bunch in Chicago, a bunch in California, Grand Canyon and lots more in Arizona...Big Ben, Trafalgar Square, Greenwich, stuff all over London, Edinburgh Castle, Eiffel Tower and stuff all over Paris...

2) How has travel affected you?
Seeing so many places growing up has made me love to travel. It's also made me appreciate how varied the country, and the world, is.

3) What are the best souvenirs you’ve ever collected while traveling?
Magnets. Small, inexpensive, and easily displayed on the fridge. Also postcards.

4) What is your fantasy vacation?
A Eurorail pass and all the time in the world to schlep around Europe. Sometimes stay at AirBnBs, sometimes in hotels.

5) Would you want to be a space tourist?
I'd love to see Earth from space, and maybe land on the moon. Still, it sounds a bit scary.
