You've been to some interesting places :-)
Wow, what a great list! you've been to some wonderful places!
Happy TT!
I've been to a few of the same places as you. I'd like to re-visit them though as well as explore many new places. :)
I almost did a similar TT. I decided to save it for a time when I have problems thinking up a list.lol

You visited some great places. I'm jealous.

I have been to quite a few of those places.
I know exactly were Guthrie, Oklahoma is...I am a native Oklahoman.
Great TT!

Happy T13

Wow, Paris!!! Totally jealous on that one. :-P
Thanks for the comments everyone! I've definitely been lucky to travel so much. There are quite a few places I left of the list. And like Erin, I'd love to go back to most of the places. I especially want to go to the Matterhorn in Switzerland one day. Of course I want to see new places as well. I love to travel and explore new places:)
And sparky, I was very lucky to get to travel while at Verizon. We had some system conversions in the department I worked in at the time. They happened at different times in different parts of the country and we traveled to help out the local areas. Since we were there for 2 weeks, we got the weekends free to explore the area! I was also able to stay an extra few days in Hawaii after the official business was over. It was nice to have a mini-vacation without having to pay for the flight over and back:)
I was struck by the fact that I've never heard of Sylva, NC and yet I lived for years in NC. I'm guessing it was in the mountains---I lived "down east."
Mailyn, Paris was cool! We didn't have too much time to explore on our own since I went with a school group, but we did have one free day. One thing I learned though is not to walk from the Eiffel Tower to the Louvre. Judging distances from the top of the Eiffel Tower is really not a good idea.
And damozel, Sylva is in the western part of NC out toward the mountains. It's a pretty small town, so I'm not surprised you hadn't heard of it!
I am totally jealous....they all sound great...especially Hawaii and Paris....maybe some day:)
