For me it would have to be around North America then onto Europe by motorbike. So visiting America, Canada, England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Germany, Switzerland, France, Austria, Italy, Spain, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Holland, Czech, Poland, and any others that I decide to stop over in. Stopping along the when ever I get a chance.

I'd like to motorcycle around anywhere, EXCEPT maybe not in Asia... yet... I'd have to get really good at motorcycling before I attempted that. -------------------- My most recent blog: A trip to Toronto that turned into a trip to Niagara

Probably in a car, not a motorbike But that's a long way off. Would LOVE to take on Australia and possibly Japan too! -------------------- Sarah: Little girl, big dreams.

I want to go from Seattle south, and I think seal wants to come along as well, don't you? We can be persuaded to do it in a car... -------------------- My most recent blog: A trip to Toronto that turned into a trip to Niagara

There are still many parts of the country I haven't seen and a roadtrip is a great way to do it. One of these days... -------------------- ~Kit California Local Expert Visit my travel blogs: http://www.travelpod.com/members/kitkatgo

I just looked up the price of a Greyhound Discovery 30 day pass... it's CDN$ 399 It's not a car or motorcycle....but... if a bunch of us split a rental car... it would probably be about the same price.... maybe more depending on the price of gas. -------------------- My most recent blog: A trip to Toronto that turned into a trip to Niagara

Navigator Group: Local Expert Posts: 1367 Joined: 21-August 06 From: Southern California Member No.: 13816	Well, I'm not sure really how I would go. Perhaps across to the south one way and across to the north coming back or something. ??? I need to read your roadtrip post to see where you are at with it...I would love to join you, but I imagine it would be difficult for me to do so (kids and all). Plus we are planning on being out of the country July through Oct next year...so I'm hoping you're not coming then, because I at least want to be able to see you!!! -------------------- ~Kit California Local Expert Visit my travel blogs: http://www.travelpod.com/members/kitkatgo
