Sep. 29th, 2008 08:56 pmquick question time:
Top five places you want to go and visit on this little blue and green ball spinning through space, assuming money/time not a problem.
Bonus points for reasons why.
[edit]
Japan: Mount Fuji, noodles (yay!) Akhibhara (gadgets), Tokyo nightlife
China: K's dad has been there a lot in his work, and I'd love to see the country, from big city life to the countryside
USA: - ok, bit of a broad one this - road trip coast to coast, catching as many of my LJ friends as possible. Cos you're all awesome.
Canada: specifically Newfoundland, as my parents lived there for a year before I was born. I was very nearly Canadian.
New Zealand: for the scenery, and because it's about as far from here as is possible to get.
