Texas? Is this a joke?? |

Joke? I don’t know? I listed Southern Maryland earlier in the thread. I was serious, kind of. |

Teen kids have been overseas a couple times and to the Caribbean a couple times too. We don’t have the funds for copious amounts of international travel. Additionally, kids don’t have the time. Sports, band, scouts, and lest we forget, school, and the window for travel in our lives is pretty limited.
As great as the international trips are, and they have been great. Some of the kid’s favorite trips are going on family trips to OBX with their cousins, or a long weekend trip to NYC to see a show and go shopping. |

I agree, but plenty of Texans would love to secede and become their own country. I say let them try it. I give them a year until they come crawling back. |

You do know Puerto Rico is an American territory and citizens are US citizens? So you stayed in a working class neighborhood of Americans. How exotic. Then you are bragging about driving around the exotic Bahamas and giving money out to people? Offensive and weird. |

Regarding the posters naming a city as opposed to the country:
I just figured it was there way of saying that when visiting that country they only stayed in one city, as opposed to other countries they have visit where they went to several cities/small towns all over the place. For example, I've been to Amsterdam and didn't go anywhere else in the Netherlands-strictly stayed in Amsterdam. So while I can truthfully say I've been to the Netherlands, it's more accurate to just say Amsterdam. But Spain? I have family friends that are Spanish and I've visited them for entire summers several times. I've been to dozens of cities and small towns all over-so it's more accurate to just say "Spain" rather than a huge list. |
