I would like to see Tuscany, Italy someday. That's it. I have no desire to go anywhere else outside the USA.vraiblonde said:I never really had a desire to go to overseas just because there's so many places in the US that I haven't seen that are more attractive destinations for me.
Plus I can't imagine taking a 7 hour plane ride without being able to smoke.

IRL, it does look like it does on TV. That is, you get a sense of the color scheme, and you can hear the echos, and you can see into the holes and ravines.

When I do go back to the grand canyon, it will be with the plan to hike as many miles of the rim as I can before my feet fall off... you game...:shrug:Chasey_Lane said:I'm planning a December 2007 Nevada (well, LV) trip. You on board?

Many moons ago a couple friends and I hiked down the Kiabab trail, along the river trail, visited the Phantom Ranch and hiked up Bright Angel. It was a long hike! Then eating dinner that night at the Bright Angel lodge we looked up and there was a ring tailed cat up in the rafters. Natural log open ceiling. Not a bad day.kwillia said:In all seriousness, I love to hike and the thought of going back to GC to walk until I can walk no more thrills me to no end!
