One was enough for me back in 1970. If another one come close to my town, I might take a look... 2017 might be lookin' like a good year...

I have been to Sydney, Australia.
I have been to Hong Kong and Guang Zhou, China for Asia. Which isn't really two different countries, but I did have to go through customs to travel between them.
I have been to Spain, Poland, Germany, Czech Republic and Russia for Europe
I have been to the US and Canada for North America.
I have never been to South America, and I don't think I will ever go to Antarctica.
That's a cool item, Cheryl. I am going to steal it.
I'm definitely jealous of your travelling! 
(Although I think I caught some of that stuff on your FB map.) You also reminded me of another travelling goal I have - to make it to all the Canadian provinces and territories. Only one more province to get to, but all three territories too. Not sure when that'll happen.

Whats the difference between a province and a territory?

So many wasted opportunities to not let you back in.
So imagine that!

That was a good one. Where were you? My first was February 1979 in Roundup, Montana, about 50 miles north of Billings:

I think we could have stayed home and seen about the same thing but Dad wanted to go, so we went. He grew up in that area for the most part and liked to fish there whenever he could. It made for a good excuse to go.

We went up to stay with my Great Grandmother not to far from Nahunta, GA. It was pretty much on the central line.
