If you could magically travel anywhere by just wishing, where would you go? 1. Samoa–warm, and I want to see Robert Louis Stevenson’s last home 2. A beautiful private beach in the Caribbean somewhere 3. Mars. Even assuming it’d be a very short one-way trip, What a way to go! 4. Germany’s theatre district. See some non-English musicals. 5. Musee D’Orsay - home to a wealth of Impressionist paintings 6. England/the U.K. Been wanting to go back for years. 7. Midair above the Grand Canyon (without falling) 8. Disney World 9. The Hermitage in Petersburg, Russia 10. Jacksonville FL to see the football game tomorrow 11. St. Helena Island. Pretty hard to get there any other way. 12. The moon. So I can see the earth rise. The earth rising simulation in Disney’s Spaceship Earth ride is beautiful, makes me wish I could see the real thing.
