Re: What is the Favorite Place you've Traveled to???
In the states we loved the cruise and personal travels in ALaska with the scenery, wildife to include Orca whales, sammon fishing and bears, Glacier bay, the history of the gold rush in Skagway, and alot more.
Swiss alps and treking through high mountains. You take the gondola cars to the highest peaks; stop to let the mountain cows with their BIG cow bells or a farmer with a flock of geese pass; enjoy some goulash or hot tea in summer or winter while basking in the sunny (hot hot) sun; and the most unique staying in a small B&B and in the early evening being part of a yodelling impromptu by the locals while engaging in their local brew :#1:!
France...all parts to enjoy the countryside, of course the food..visiting our first Michelin Star resturant; the culture of the cities; Enjoying a New Years Festive occasion in a small French bistro not knowing what to expect or anyone esle besides the couple you are with but yet being invited to sit at tables mingle with the people and enjoying total cultural immersion!
Germany..our home for 4 years, freindly people, gateway to all of europe, The Beer, customs and summer open air markets and fests....to include Octoberfest and the Bad Durkheim wine festivals, Volks Marching to gain your trek medal, Berlin before the wall came down was a real eye opening (and history) experience
Bangkok/ Chaing Mai.....people were extremely friendly always calling me ....Mr Richard, totaly different culture from Europe than our previous experiences, shopping
