Never been to Legoland, which is just a short jaunt away. Not feeling like I’m missing anything.
Long time Austinite. Never once gone to see the bats take off from the Congress Avenue bridge. Also try to avoid Sixth Street like the plague.
I’ve often been within a mile of the middle of the northern half of the western hemisphere (45ºN, 90ºW), and never bothered to go see the US Geological Survey marker, or the little white fence that surrounds it. And as a nerdy map guy, I’m the niche demographic for that!
Huh, according to a plaque there, the other three “45-90” points aren’t really accessible. All the more reason to stop by Poniatowski, Wisconsin.
I’ve lived in Memphis all my life and I’ve never been to Graceland. Nothing against Elvis, I just never cared.
I’ve never been to the Rochester Science Museum, the Susan B. Anthony house, Seabreeze Amusement Park, or the Hill Cumorah center. I’ll admit I don’t have much interest in the latter two.
I lost my license. Now I don’t drive.
I live near San Francisco. Passed through Memphis last summer. We did Graceland. That’s a half day of my life that I’ll never get back.
I live in Luxembourg, which, being a small country, has only a small handful of really noteworthy attractions, some of which are quite cool and worth the time to visit.
We’ve done basically all of them over the years, with the exception of the European Museum in Schengen. You may recognize the name; this was the signing location for the “free movement” treaty eliminating border control between European signatories, back at the dawn of what eventually became the European Union. Now, you probably know, the “Schengen Zone” or “Schengen Area” denotes the wider European region where you can move from country to country with no visas or passport checks, and that town is why it has that name.
It’s kind of neat that this tiny winemaking village has lent its moniker to such a politically significant entity, and given its historical importance it’s a little odd that we haven’t made the time to visit, even just to pay our respects (and, no doubt, tip a glass of Crémant).
The Luzern Fasnacht starts with a big bang (Urknall) at 5 am on a Thursday in February, which starts the Tagwach.
I have been living in central Switzerland for more than two decades. I’ve never been to the Tagwach in Luzern or even attended the one in my little town. Even with the windows closed, I can hear the Urknall in my town.
I’ve never been to Jungfrau or Schilthorn or Lauterbrunnen, all places which are often heaving with tourists.
I was going to post the same thing. I lived in the D/FW area for 14 years, and although I drove through it, I never visited the museum. Here in Little Rock, I’ve never seen the little rock. Yeah, there’s actually a little rock that the city was allegedly named after.
Been up there just once, mainly just to take my son. Those who are queasy about heights can feel free to walk across the glass floor and look straight down! But have never been to the restaurant at the top, which sounds gimmicky and overpriced, but I don’t really know first-hand.
Hmmm… been to Leafs games at Scotiabank Arena (formerly Air Canada Centre), Jays games at Rogers Centre, and even a Raptors game at Scotiabank Arena – I don’t care for basketball but my son won a pair of Raptors tickets once so we went. Did the CN Tower thing, been to the Royal Ontario Museum and the Ontario Science Centre. Been to Casa Loma (interesting only insofar as it’s a magnificent castle-like building with underground tunnels and an intriguing history). Been to Canada’s Wonderland many times. I was about to conclude that I’m just a regular tourist type but wait – I have never been to the annual CNE – Canadian National Exhibition, a sort of big-city county fair.
Live in the Colorado high country at 11,200 feet. I’m pretty much surrounded by 14,000 foot peaks. Many people make trips and excursions all over the world to climb these and of course much higher peaks.
With binoculars, I can see people on the top of two of them from my deck.
Me, “Meh, why bother?”
I feel the same about downhill skiing.
I now feel the same about camping. Used to do it a lot. OR I could make a nice fire in our firepit, and HEY, there is a bathroom and refrigerator not more than 50 feet away. Decisions, decisions.
When we go on vacation, however, they are adventurous. I don’t feel like it’s an adventure if it’s in my own back yard. Just work.
Not exactly local since it’s in MA, but I’ve never been to the Big E. I’m not even sure what it is and have no plans to go either.
I’ve lived in NYC my whole life. Although there are many attractions I’ve never been to ( and even more that I’ve only been to on a school trip of my own or one of my kids) , the first two that come to mind are NYE in Times Square and the Thanksgiving day parade.
Yup. We’ve only been here through two cycles of the state fair, but have no desire to join that crush of humanity. Never went in Oregon, either.
There are a few museums on the university campus that I’ve been to multiple times, but there is a community museum downtown that I’ve never been to in my 40+ years living here.
I took a look at the TripAdvisor top attractions list for Toronto. Out of the top 20, the only ones I have not been to are Ripley’s Aquarium and the Hockey Hall of Fame.
I love going to all kinds of festivals and fairs and museums and monuments and kooky attractions. I’m the guy that always pulls over to read roadside historical markers.
I live 15-20 minutes from the Johnson Space Center but have never been there.
I’ve never been to the Luxembourg Cultural Center 5 miles south of me. Nor the model railroad museum 15 miles north of me.
Ha, this was going to be my answer. I could have written this post word for word, other than substituting “25 years” for “all my life”.
