Reflections: Why travel

Why would you travel is the question at hand. Me I ask why not travel. The world is so big and full of many wonderful things. I personally have been in most the states in the USA. There are so many things to see. The laser light show on the side of stone mt in Atlanta Georgia was one of my favorites. Lets face it you don't know how great the great lakes are till you been there. It is just human nature to be adventitious. Explore lost caverns and underground lakes. Traveling can be romantic. It can clear your head of the worries of day to day life. What would the great pyramids of Egypt be but another tomb if no one went to see it. Even if you can't afford a long trip you would be surprise what you have been living next to all you life. I have seen so many great things hear in the USA i can't wait to see what the rest of the world has to offer.

Have you ever seen the arch in st louis? It is not only the symbol of the gate way to the west. It also has a museum under it and it is a man made wounder. More into relaxing well what is more relaxing than a day at the beach? Myrtle beach SC has a laid back atmosphere during the day and a booming night life. There are 50 states in the USA and all of them have many things to offer. It varies from places people hardly ever see to great metropolis. I love the outdoors. I want to see the vast spaces of Alaska. I think on my drive to Alaska I would like to visit mt saint Helaina. I hear during the summer it is full of wild life and grand adventure. I would also like to see the statue of liberty the very symbol of freedom. I would also like to go see the worlds largest mall. I have spent a couple years working on the mighty Mississippi river. Now i would like to take a river boat cruise on it. I hear they got themed rides. Witch should have a little something for everyone. Just to see if i can get lost in it lol.

As for my abroad travels i want to go to England and New Zealand. England because it is rich in history and the mother to our the original 13 colonies. New Zealand because i have seen it in many films. It looked so majestic I feel i have to see it for myself. So save your nickles and dimes and let your heart be your guide. The world is your play ground.
