Where would you like to go?

I have several "world wonders" I need to see: Great Wall, Ankar Wat, Babylon, the Pyramids at Giza, Chichinitza, Manchu Pichu, The 'rock' in Australia, the Forbidden Palace, <and the list goes on and on>
 
Hmmm, my top ten places would be:

1. Africa - already done Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zimbabwe
2. Madagascar
3. Venezuela - Angel Falls - skydiving :D
4. Peru - The Inca trail - Lima to Machu Pichu
5. New Zealand - North and South
6. The Rockies at the beginning of autumn.
7. Easter Island - I want to live in a giant head...
8. Thailand.
9. Antartica
10. Tibet

There are other places I'd like to go, mainly for festivals (like Rio). But the above are the ones I most want to see. I've travelled quite alot already but I still want MORE... :D
 
I'd be happy to just do a simple trip out in the space once in my lifetime. :) Mars or even the moon is just dreams though, but in 30-40 years we might have (almost) affordable space trips though.
 
you might be surprised. remember, 125 years ago the idea of generating enough heat to create power to power an electical ship for years using only one solid piece of fuel smaller than an automobile engine, 100 years ago the notion of simply flying in anything more than an air baloon was proposterous. 75 years ago the whole concept of a solid electronic switch was unthinkable, not to mention the idea of hundreds of millions of them being contained in a device that could fit in the palm of your hand. 200 years ago if you got a bacterial infection and it was not quickly amputated then people would start digging your grave.


the ability to shield gravity is already possible, we have what could be real visitors from the future among us, and intelligent forces beyond our understanding observing us. Time travel experiments are really happening, albeit with single neutrons, which can lead to interdimensional travel as well as the ability to travel to points our own dimension without actually tracersing the space in between the destination and origin.

Did you read my thread "How Earth will end"///? That scientist says that It may be possible that their are no ET life anywhere in this universe...may be we are the only one!
 
I'm sorru but there is too much evidence to support ET life. I'm not talking about abductions and sightings, I'm talking about real, confirmable evidence.
 
Show it to me please.
ET life may exist, but we don't have little green men observing us. I've heard and seen way to much "confirmable evidence" that really nothing but modern versions of trolls stories. I have yet to see any kind of evidence or even the slightest hint that there is any credible reason to believe there is ET life.
 
a) i dont remember the exact date, but there was a meteor on an impact course with a satellite which had some people quite concerned. there really was no way that they could prevent the loss of the satellite.... but they didnt loose it. know why? cause the "meteor" came to a dead stop (relative to the satellite) and then went ANOTHER DIRECTION. it's public info recorded in official records, I just dont know where to find them again.
 
oh, and the whole "little green men" thing I dont buy into. but I'm quite confident that ever since we have shown the ability to split the atom there has been a lot of interstellar hubub about us. probably the era during which "UFP" sightings were most prominent was during WWII, my guess is that that's because "they" wanted to know what we were going to do with our newfound power. as for the abduction stuff.... meh, sure its possible, but I don't put much into it myself.

edit:

oh yes, my theory is that we have to reach a point in evolution at which we no longer seek to destroy and then we will be welcomed into the local interstellar community.
 
I just like to travel... the destination isnt always necessary ;P... in those cases where destinations do count Id like to see southwestern France again... creepy part of the country... Tuscany (Im so prone to tourist traps but they are still great destinations nevertheless) and most of Europe... hhe

I want to go into space and locate a black hole the size (not mass) of a tennis ball and step on it. :LOL:

It's unlikely you'll find a natural one in the space :)

Back to the topic... My family was planning for a travel to Hokkaido this year, but many things happened and we have to postpone it to next year. it's not a big deal since SARS strikes and we'll have to postpone it, anyway.

By the way, I heard there are some "triple islands." (island inside a lake inside an island inside a lake inside an island) Is there any concrete example?

That wouldn't be very natural then, would it? :D
 
I'd like to visit the deep sea (several miles down), with those luminous fish and things.

Or long-term Zero-G would be different (not sure fun would be the right word, I might hate it but it would be a real holiday in the sense of total change in life style).

It might certainly be a total change afterwards given muscle wastage and the weakening of bones! :oops:
 
ah but have you ever heard about making love in zero-G? it is, theoretically ( ;) ) a VERY different experience.
