Which country?

[Babs]

If you had the choice, which three countries where you haven't already been would you like to visit and why.

I would like to to go to the American Wild West and visit the cowboy towns and Indian reservations......I would have to go in a car or the back of a motorbike because I am frightened of horses.

Southern Ireland because I have heard it's beautiful and some of my ancestors came from there and I would like to go for long walks in the hills armed with my camera of course.

Malaysia on a jungle trek would be my third choice, I love the sounds of the jungle and I could take plenty of photos of all the wierd and wonderful things the jungle holds.

Tasmania, Tibet (but not at the moment) and Japan.

[Chocky]

France.

new zealand would be one, from the pictures i've seen the scenery looks stunning. i'm a sucker for a beautiful view.
...... do you know babs this is harder than it sounds.
theres so many places to see for different reasons, narrowing it down to three is quite hard.
iceland sounds good. the land of fire and ice. i'd love to see an active volcano...though not endangering anyone ,obviously.
southern france also looks stunning..(oops i've been to paris once.). i like to watch programmes such as' a place in the sun' . i've always thought that the ardeche valley looks a very beautiful spot.
i guess the views govern my choices

[Babs]

France.

Errrr that's only one and you haven't said why Have you never been Beryl to France that is

[Babs]

Tasmania, Tibet (but not at the moment) and Japan.

rolf, what would be your reasons for visiting these three countries...........Japan is it to eat the raw fish

[rolf]

LOL, no thanks, not a fish lover, I've always wanted to go there and my sister went there last year and said it was a "must see" place.

Tibet because I love mountains and the pictures I've seen make it look intriguing, Tasmania, my friend Brian lives there and tells me how stunning the landscapes are, it being largely unspoiled.

I've been to the United States, Bahamas, France, Spain, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Newfoundland (Canada), Ireland, Scotland and Wales, so couldn't include any of those, even though some were only visited briefly.

[Babs]

Thanks rolf, the countries I've been to are
Italy, Switzerland, France, Austria, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Wales, Scotland, Spain, Cyprus, Malta, Egypt, India,Thailand and South Africa.

We went to Egypt for our 25th Wedding Anniversary, fantastic holiday

So come on folks how about listing which countries you have been to as well

[andy b]

i was thinking along the same lines as you rolf, i have visited canada, toronto and niagara. but i really would love to visit the rockies and the national parks.
i suppose the distance apart it could almost be another country. ( if you take into consideration how small our tiny country is compared to canada)
the train ride through the rockies must be brill.

[Babs]

I was thinking about Icelend as well andy, I bet the scenery is stunning and am I right in thinking you can see the northern lights there.

Nice one andy we also went in July very very very hot as you probably already know. We had a 7 night cruise down the Nile, 3 nights in Cairo and 4 nights Luxor. While in Luxor we went on a day trip to the Red sea and also a day trip to Abu Simbel. I would say out of all the holidays I have had this was by far the best and really interesting and the people were lovely..................I would do the exact same holiday tomorrow if I could I'm sure you'll have a fabulous time.

certainly are, unfortunately I was not into photography then well not like I am know, we took loads of photos and if I remember rightly when we came back it cost us £70 to have them all developed. At night it was breezy and it felt like a hot hairdryer was blowing in your face while were on the boat. Most important is a hat, the sun is right above you and beaming down on your head during the day.... I was always looking for the shade.
