Tour of America
by i want to take a road-trip at the end of this year. planning has been going on for some time now but now the time comes down to picking places that we really wanna go. we have a few in mind (new orleans, biggest roller coaster, yellowstone, rt. 66) just tons of things that we plan on doing. the only problem is that we just cannot think of enough things to do.
it's basically just a tour of america. we will end up bakc home after going through the country. but i wanted to know if there were any cool, crazy places people have been or even heard about that look interesting to go to.
p.s. i think there is a little boat trip planned for sailing into puerto rico to play in the phosphorescant water.

DUDE! i wanna see the phospherescent water!!!
prepare to smell. last road trip i was on... driving for hourss straight.. sleeping in a truck = smelly men.. and beef jerky
there's that biggest ball of rubber bands somewhere. That's stupid, but might be interesting.
there's also the biggest ball of twine in Minnesota.
we are sooo stoppping there.
While you are at it, go visit Intercourse, PA. Nice place. (Actually I've never been there.)
funny...that's in amish country, right?
Yeah, those straight laced amish are living in a town called Intercourse. Just seems wrong. But then again, they grow tobacco and are against smoking. That's really wrong. AND they drive those confounded buggies on the roads and mess them up sooo bad but don't pay taxes that help to repair the road system...I could go on and on about the amish.
In Malaysia they have a kite festival.
In Sweden they have an entire hotel made of ice. Ice beds, everything. It's close to the world's largest copper mine .. or something like that. And suposedly a lot of Asian people go there to see the Northern Lights. Sveeeden! YAAA!
Seriously? After seeing that Bond movie I've wanted to stay somewhere like that!!! But why just Asian people..that's kind of odd. I want to see the northern lights too AND I want to see Asian people!!
how do you sleep on an all ice bed. like... i sleep neked.. so... hows that gonna help me keep warm. ... i'd be stuck to the bed. not cool
Au contraire. It's a special bed made of snow and ice, covered by reindeer skins, and then they give you a special thermal sleeping bag, and thermal clothing. I would probably never do it because I hate coldness of any kind.. but it sounds amazingly cool!! no pun intended.
And I just found out.. this is one of MANY! There is one in Canadia, one in Alaska, and one in Greenland, and one "GOTHIC" one is being built in Alaska. COOL!
i met some people who went stayed in one when i went to a party in clinton. i dont' think they related well that night.
well then they're losers!! bahaha.. reindeer skins.. thermal sleeping bags... i duno sounds relatable to me!
i'd be so nervous . cause i'm so wild.. that if the reindeer skin slips off.. and there's just all ice.. and i touch it.. i'm stuck. and that is not good
YO, I just had this same thought over the weenend!..I drove 6 hours through upstate NY w/my family, & i'm thinking to myself, "how fun would this be, if it was w/friends....driving to california or something.."...EZABEL ROADTRIP BABY!!..I'm SO down
where'd you go upstate? i'm heading up there next week
Williamsville....a suburb about 20 minutes from B-TOWN(bufallo...birth place, of the bufallo wing)..dude, MAKE sure you get some barbeque wings from bufallo if you roll through there..they're amazing...oh, & you're from thailand right?..I went to a Thai restaurant while I was up there, had this Thai iced tea that was freaking AMAZING, like, it's more than just iced tea, it's almost literally like a desert...i was in heaven...
what did me being from thailand have to do with you eating thai food? hahahaha i was so confused.
well i'm not heading that far. syracuse . and i'll be having thai food forl unch today ! rad na !
what?..lol, i was just assuming that since you're from the place ya mighta had that amazing crazy-good iced tea they make over there...pure extacy I tell u
yeah but where would you go on your road trip?? that's the whole point of this journal.
South Central L.A.!!!!...& remember, don't be a menace, while drinking your juice!
yea come down here to south central, and you can visit me. there's plenty to do here, like...umm....
actually we were thinkin of making a visit to you. well your area and then meeting up with you someplace. we shall see.
South Dakota is fun--yeah right. But there are parts up in the northern-midwest that have NO SPEED LIMITS. Montana, South Dakota, and several other states are like this--but not just ANYWHERE, you'd have to find the speed limitless roads.
south dakota is fun with a group of friends. If you get to go to any meetings out there, that is fun. If you go out in service there, that is fun, too. Otherwise, South Dakota is not fun. I had fun there. I had lots of friends with me, service to do, and meetings to catch.
imagine if your were there alone, or if you lived there? man, that'd be tough
here's a site with all the funny things you could go see: http://www.roadsideamerica.com/

any more suggestions?
