Title: "I've Been Everywhere Man" (Travel Thread) Post by: Bill 213 on August 05, 2007, 11:23:46 AM Always wanted to Johnny Cash it up a bit.
Anyway one of my big obsessions in life is to travel especially short trips on my days off.....so I thought I'd create a little thread for everyone to show off pics of their vacations or recant adventures on where they've been or where you might be going. My favorite trips have definitely been to either NYC or San Antonio as both of those cities really know how to throw down in terms of partying. I don't have any pictures on hand right now, but I'll put some up a bit later.

(http://www.liukumiina.com/roskat/laivakuvia/symphony_terminal.jpg) Played some miniature golf on the deck: (http://www.liukumiina.com/roskat/laivakuvia/symphony_golf.jpg) After spending too much time in the Stockholms terminal (there was one (yes, ONE) dog who had to check every passenger for drugs) we got to the city and saw Donkey and Shrek..: (http://www.liukumiina.com/roskat/laivakuvia/symphony_shrek.jpg) ..and the girls started shopping (I started to regret for not to stay in the ship). I had to get something to drink: (http://www.liukumiina.com/roskat/laivakuvia/symphony_stock.jpg) Back in the ship, relaxing and watching the sunset: (http://www.liukumiina.com/roskat/laivakuvia/symphonyikkuna.jpg) By midnight we stopped at Maarianhamina and passed a cool pirateship and not-so-cool Viking Line Mariella: (http://www.liukumiina.com/roskat/laivakuvia/symphony_mariella.jpg) It was great, as always. Even the little storm during the first night didn't ruin the trip, altough it was pretty sick trying to walk when the floor goes up and down and left and right. I also bought some Jack Daniels -chocolate from Tax Free, it's fuckin' great :rofl: Wanna get back soon..

I'll have to post a few here. Do: North Rim of grand canyon. If you have time, drive an hour through middle of forest to "east" (unofficial, no services) rim. Absolutely friggin amazing. Of the zillion people that visit that place each year, only a tiny amount go off the beaten path. The east rim is well worth it. It is like having the entire canyon to yourself and whoever else is with you. Pack a lunch and thank me when you get back. Flagstaff Az, something about that place. Zion, like dying and going to heaven. Kind of like being at the bottom of the grand canyon, looking up. Bryce Canyon, like being in a road runner cartoon. I may very well be hiking some of the AT in the next year or so. Give it a test run and see how I fair. If I can manage, I will drop out for 6 months and do what I am able. You only live once.
