The Only Way To Fly Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 This came up at party over the weekend - What's the farthest you've ever been away from home? I live in Chicago & last Spring spent 10 days in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Was absolutely one of the best vacations ever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomloge Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Well, very very very long time ago, but when I was 12 me and my brothers took an Ocean cruise out of New York City and went to Germany for the summer. Great times there. My Mom's side of the family is all there, including a bunch of cousins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DropDown Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) When I lived in NY, the furthest south was Florida, the furthest east was Europe, the furthest north was Lake Placid, and the furthest west was Cleveland. Now that I live in southern Italy, the furthest north is England; west, Madrid; east, Athens; and south, Malta.

Pagefan55 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Antarctica? That must have been interesting. My farthest is Hobart/Port Arthur, Tasmania. (Australia) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryder1978 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Pagefan55, It was interesting. I took one of those converted Russian research ships over there for 10 days and the amount of wildlife there was beyond expectations. Of course it was during the Antarctic "summer". Not nearly as cold as I expected either. One of the highlights was being entertained by a Russian cook who knew a ton of Zep tunes on his guitar and we all sang as a group while he played.

TypeO Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 las vegas, nv I went there for my golden 24th birthday Living in Georgia, I've been to Las Vegas twice - once on our honeymoon, and again on our 18th anniversary last year. Of course I was born in Tripoli, Libya, which is quite a ways from Georgia, LOL. So I guess that would count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
