I want to visit Elsa the Lionesses' grave in Meru National Park, Keyna. All my money went into my mouth. I feel like crying. I also want to see Watts' Chapel, Guilford, UK and the Frieda Kahlo in Phoenix.
Anybody else have a location dream?

(3,730 posts)that we will probably limit ourselves to places we can drive. And there is an incredibly limited number of states we are willing to travel to any more, unfortunately.

(15,739 posts)Is too high but i c like $1000 RT from jfk. So she travels a lot, so i don't know. You need a visa and shots from travel medicine. You also take a small plane to the kopje. That's expensive but its once-in-a- lifetime trip. The armed guards take you to the grave and on safaris and other things. I'd give anything to go

(3,730 posts)I watch the series regularly and have the book close to hand. I keep up with current archeology from there, including evidence that now shows a battle was fought there, and that the damage Schliemann did while working there covered much of the early site that would have proved his theory about this being the site of the Trojan War.
Concentrate on getting to Phoenix for now, I know that would make you happy!

(1,181 posts)get to as many of them as I can. I'd like to go back to Sagrada Familia in Barcelona now that it's much closer to completion than when I saw it. It was mind-blowing back then and, in photos I've seen, it's even more stunning now. I want to visit the Sheldrick Trust elephant nursery in Nairobi, Victoria Falls in Zambia/Zimbabwe, Milford Sound in New Zealand, the Galapagos, Thailand, Australia, Croatia, Greece, Ghana, Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Sweden, Vietnam, Cambodia...and so many more.

(1,181 posts)This planet is an incredibly beautiful and fascinating place. The fact that it's so in peril currently makes me want to see it that much more urgently before so many amazing places are gone.

(52,253 posts)It's an old Soviet communication site in the eastern länder of Germany that I had an extremely high interest in. Now it's a museum.
The website says they only offer tours for groups of five or more, but I wonder what they'd do if I offered them 75 Euro (the cost of five people's admission) to tour it individually.

There are also many music-related sites I'd love to visit.
