Ever have those ~ Where do want to go visit before you die conversations?Mine always has to be started with "No Where that Doesn't Speak English". I have a phobia of going to countries that don't speak my language.
Just in case you are keeping a list:
sciurophobia - fear of squirrels Can be pronounced: ski-ooro-phobia or she-ooro-phobia ~ Of course we should really clarify, I am not actually scared of squirrels I just think they are evil. I guess I can be a sciurobigot.
Then there is Bovinophobia - Fear of cows. Again, not really a fear of the actual COW, just of that crazy one in the herd that is going to attack, stomp on you and kill you for no reason. SO it could be narrowed to un0psychobovinophobia (one crazy cow phobia). Of note, the term "PHOBIA" implies an irrational fear, I do not believe this is irrational.
and here we have a phobia that has no clinical name. I do not fear foreign language, I hear it all the time, I fear being in a place where the foreign language is primarily spoken. I know where it comes from. I grew up in El Paso. Mexico was alway filled with horrible stories and situations. I could tell you several stories, but trust me, this is a deep seeded fear. My husband will attest to it. You will not catch me eagerly going over the boarder for anything. So my "list of places to go" usually excludes countries and places that do not primarily speak English. So for instance places like Cuba and Miami are out.
Back to the original topic
(The logic kinda weaves together like an ugly sweater)
So top 10 places I would like to go before I die that I have never been before: (in no particular order)
1) New Zealand/Australia (yes I can combine these, they are in the same hemisphere)
2) London (this would be fun because David can't understand English dialects - He hates Monty Python cuz he cant understand what they are saying)
3) NY, NY - This one I will be able to check off the list in a couple weeks.
4) Alaska in the summer. I hate being cold
5) Grand Canyon
6) Cruise Ship through Italy, Greece, Cyprus, Turkey, etc. The cruise ship would have to have an American flag on it.
7) Yellow Stone National Forest
8) Hike the Grand Staircase in Utah
9) Montana/Wyoming
10) Outer Space, Not too far out there Just enough to see the entire earth. Is space a place?
