> > I began using the forum a little late to be able to reply to the earlier Y2K post about everyone's plans for the milestone. I was just wondering...Do any of you guys want to travel to a foreign country over winter break? My parents are forcing me to go to Costa Rica for the millenium, and although I sound spoiled, I reall cannot see being away for the biggest party night in the history of forever. What do you guys think? Should you travel for the millenium?

> I *want* to travel for the millennium. I want to get away from the hundreds of thousands of people from the USA who are coming *here*. We're the first major country to see the sunrise and the eager hordes are already descending. Ack. Maybe I'll go to the USA, it'll be empty.

Not likely. All this Y2K paranoia has most of us Americans staying the heck away from planes...not to say that traveling to New Zealand doesn't have a certain appeal to it. Exotic locales, Kinder eggs--heck, I could even get a cameo in FotR if I play my cards right!
