Title: Fun with maps. (countries)
Post by: ReardenSteel on May 28, 2008, 07:35:50 PM
Visited Countries would be a swell game to go with the "visited States" thread however, I've only been to Mexico and Canada so I'd rather have a game thread instead.

Dear CC,

You have just won an all expense paid vacation to 5 countries of your choosing! Where are you going?

I'm boring. I'd like to hit some of Europe.

(http://www.world66.com/community/mymaps/worldmap?visited=BEFRIEITUK)

France (I need to see Normandy, Paris and Marseilles before I die.)
England: I want to visit Shakespeare's home, Stonehenge, Hastings, and the ancient western part of the island, where Alfred the Great put down the Viking invasions.
Ireland: My roots
Italy: My roots
Belgium: I want to see the site where the 101st Airborne made its stand during the Battle of the Bulge.

I'm not fond of this sort of map, because while I spent much time in Russia, for example, it was just the southwestern portion of that time and place.  That was a lot of territory I wandered through, about twice the size of Texas or France or Ukraine, but still in the scale of Russia, it was just a little piece of Russia.

And then the United States, where I've never been to Alaska or the west coast or the south; the map makes it seem as if I've been all over.  And as for Canada, everything from Manitoba eastward to Quebec.

I tended to stay on the fringes of countries; the first time I went to Great Britain, for example, as a teenager, I immediately left London and went for the Shetland and Orkney Islands.  The other two times (all three times from circa mid-December until the first part of March), I immediately left London and headed for Canterbury near the English Channel.  Winter is absolutely the very best time to be in England, and I mean that. 

I was actually in Paris, France, two times, but spent 99% of my time in France along the borders of the five-sided country.  In Germany, I hugged the border closest to France and the Benelux countries.

I was in Morocco three and a half days, in the backwoods.  I've never cared for the playgrounds of the rich and the primitives.

It was in northern Spain I learned of the sad fate of the painter Pablo Picasso's cousin.

St. Lucia isn't showing up. :(

But seriously, if someone offered me a trip, I'd go just about anywhere but the Middle East.

If I can't put Diego Garcia on my "visited" map, I'm not making one.

Yeah, I didn't see anything that looked even remotely like that in Diego Garcia.

Carmen San Diego.  Don't people watch that anymore?
