Why 60 A.D.?

50 years to early I'm sure.Hadrian's Wall I'm thinking ....
A most stunningly beautiful trip...and with all the best amenities too.One month in Norway. Travel it from south to north by combo of train, fjord cruising and car.
Thank you, all, for playing!
Honestly, I'd love to do what Vrai and Monello are doing and see the USA in an RV.
Youve got the hots for a dead girl?Thank you, all, for playing!

The story has always fascinated me.
Plus, while I would have to wait a bit to find out, I always wanted to know what happened to these folks:

I've made it to 14 of these places. I'd say I'm off to a good start!

Someday, I'll make it to Mullumbimby.I hate those things and always want to punch those dumb people right in the face. Of that list I have been to:
Empire State Building
Niagara Falls
Mount Rushmore
Newport, RI
Freedom Trail
Disney World
Miami
Las Vegas
All were either take your breath away amazing or at least a one-time must see.

LW and me really want to go to Ireland.Dublin is what you make of it. You can get sucked in to the touristy stuff if you allow yourself.
We did a 7 day self guided tour that started in Dublin. We rented a car and drove west towards Shannon then followed the coast down and around returning to Dublin to fly home. In Dublin, go to see the Book of Kells at Trinity College. We stayed at bed and breakfasts only, never a hotel. Local pubs are the definite go to especially if you like live music. Like any place you visit, ask a local where to go and eat. Figure out a way to bring home some Yellow Spot Whiskey for your good buddy kom. Kinsale is beautiful and the Ring of Kerry is picture postcard stuff. If I could go back tomorrow, I'd be packing my bags now and I'd do it for 10 days instead of 7.LW and me really want to go to Ireland.
I always thought that Dublin would be too touristy, and Cork would be better -- or just rent a car and drive through the Irish countryside, with some castles or archaeological sites as anchors.
Does that sound doable, in your experience?
(I also want to visit St Patrick's and St. Bridget's shrines, but they are in the evil NI).
You bet; I agree!History is amazing isn't it? I wonder sometimes if I ever make it to heaven would I be able to know everything then - every mystery I ever wondered about, would I be able to talk to someone about how things happened. I really want to know about the Templar Knights - did some of them escape - did they make it to America? Fascinating stuff.
