Ok you think you haven't been anywhere. I'm from the UK so if you haven't heared of any of these places that isn't my fault.
I live on the east coast of England in a reasonably dull city called Hull (a long way from London but not far from Leeds) and I have never been out of the country. The Furthest I have ever been is north to Newcastle on some dumb family outing to a place called Beamish (not far from Newcastle). I've been south to a small seafront town called Skegness (even duller than Hull Believe me) if you can top that I'll give you a Virtual Fiver!!!

She's 83. During the last week of 1999, we took her to Kennesaw, Georgia, and it was the first time she had ever been out of Tennessee. > She's seen Nashville, but has never been as far east as Knoxville or as far West as Memphis. On the way back from Georgia, we went through Chattanooga, and it was the first time she had seen that city. (Or that overgrown town, if you want to be accurate.)Lookout Mountain was the tallest mountain she had ever seen and the Tennessee River was the widest river. > Her impression of Georgia was, "They sure do have a lot of tall, straight trees." > She looks about 20 years younger than she really is, and I'm sure she will live to be a hundred, so I may talk her into a trip to Hawaii some day. > So far, she says no, but I keep trying. > Howard
