If you could choose any 5 places in the world to travel to, what would they be and why? Here's mine in no particular order. 1) Memphis Tennessee- To visit Graceland-I just HAVE to go there!!! 2) New York- Just to experience all the excitement of the city that doesn't sleep. I'd love to visit the Chelsea Hotel and watch a taping of Letterman. Oh and eat at as many pizza places as I possibly could. 3)Italy- I have an Italian background so I feel a strong connection to it. 4)Japan- I studied Japanese for many years at school and would love to see it for real. 5)Peru- to see the ancient relics.

Well here goes: 1.) Texas, I would just like to see what it is like there. 2.) Ireland, I'm Scots-Irish and the pictures of Ireland I have seen look so green and beautiful. 3.) Austrailia, I have always been fascinated with Austrailia. 4.) Egypt, I would love to see the pyramids, ancient buildings, and monuments that past pharoahs have built. 5.) Hawaii, my husband was stationed at Pearl Harbor years before I met him. He has described it, and I would love to see the Hawaiin Islands. LOL I have lived in TN for almost 9 years now and have never been to Graceland. I haven't even made it to Nashville yet and I think that is only about 2 hrs. away.

Peru - because Machu Picchu was just the most amazing place I have ever been, and the food in Peru is UNBELIEVABLE! Austria - because I love mountains, pretzels, history and the friendly people there Alaska - I've never been, and I'd like to see the glaciers before they melt Cambodia - because we would love to see Angkor Wat before it becomes a cheesy tourist trap. Switzerland - to ski the alps again I live in Colorado, so I live in a great vacation spot already. Sometimes it's hard to justify the price of travel when we can hike, camp, ski, and explore our own backyard!

1. Cape Town in South Africa. I would like to see the beautiful Table Mountain. I would adore looking at the seals and penguins on the local beaches. I would hopefully go out on a whale watching cruise. 2. Vancouver in Canada I would enjoy looking around the sights like the stunning harbour, the old town and the park with all the totem poles. I would hopefully see some of the nearby Rocky Mountains like beautiful Lake Louise. Also I would adore cruising over to Vancouver Isalnd and seeing nature there. 3. Madagascar I would love to visit the wildlife reserves where i could enjoy seeing all the unique aniamls like lemurs. I would like to take a couple of exciting train journeys throught the rainforest. It would be very relaxing to spend some time of the unspoilt sandy beaches. 4. Peru I would really like to visit Cusco the friendly local people. Then I would like to experience walking the Inca Trail. I am sure it would be a very exciting and worthwhile. 5. Philippines I would adore going island hopping for weeks and weeks. It would be lovely to stay in thatched beach accommodation. It would be superb to see the magical looking Chocolate Hills. I would spend lots of time exploring the ocean with my snrkelling gear looking at all the tropical fish and colourful coral.

I don't know if I could narrow it to just five, but I'll try!... In no particular order... 1) Taiwan, I have a lot of relative there that I've never met 2) Japan, same reason, also I learned Japanese from my grandparents, so I'd like to practice my Japanese in Japan 3) Ireland, I hear it's beautiful, and very green 4) Austrailia or New Zealand, never been to that part of the world 5) Iceland, whenever I travel to Europe, my flight always makes connections in Reykjavik. Everytime I always say I'll actually stay for a few days, but I've never had the chance. I've only see the airport, never the actual country
