Because I can't seem to write anything of value today anyway...

1. What's the last place you traveled to, outside your own home state/country?

Well I have been to many interesting places in the world, but the last one visited was not so exciting.  Last out-of-state venture was just a week ago -- a road trip with TLG to Ohio to see my sister and her family.  Last out-of-country venture, hmmm ... Probably the fall of '98. I was in Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire, making arrangements for the  Microcredit Summit  Meeting of Councils to take place at the Hotel Ivoire in the summer of '99.

2. What's the most bizarre/unusual thing that's ever happened to you while traveling?

Oh my, the stories I could tell... I did fall into an open sewer in Kumasi, Ghana while trying to take a portrait photo of an Ashanti Village Elder.  [The photos at this link are not mine]

3. If you could take off to anywhere, money and time being no object, where would you go?

Africa.  Again. And I would travel over every inch.  After that, Australia and mostly just to go here  and especially here.  Dorky I know.  But I have a soft spot for the Irwins and petting a tiger is on my list of must-do's before my time here is up.

4. Do you prefer traveling by plane, train or car?

Car [as long as I am driving], train and then plane.  In that order.

5. What's the next place on your list to visit?

With TLG, Dinosaur National Monument.  Just me and TBG without the little guy?  We would love to hit New Orleans again.  Or Amsterdam again.  Two fun towns with great food.
