My Year in Cities, 2008
Posted by Stuart at 08:50 PM on December 31, 2008At the end of most years (but not 2007), I make a list of all of the places that I spent at least one night. This year I was able to mark off several locations that have been on the top of my list, like Seoul, Korea and Phonsavan, Laos.
This year I didn't keep good records like I have in the past, but here is the alphabetical list of places that I can remember:
- Denver, Colorado *
- Hua Hin, Thailand
- Ko Samet, Thailand *
- Luang Prabang, Laos *
- Pattaya, Thailand *
- Phnom Penh, Cambodia
- Phonsavan, Laos *
- Pranburi, Thailand
- Pyay, Burma *
- Los Angeles, California
- Sam Neua, Laos *
- San Francisco, California *
- Seoul, South Korea
- Taipei, Taiwan *
- Vieng Xai, Laos *
- Yangon, Burma *
I wonder which places will be on the list for 2009.
Dad: We still have Argentina on the list, right?
I just read Dad's comments. He also made it to Fayetteville and Little Rock, Arkansas for all the in-state Razorback football games. He attended Cardinal baseball games in St. Louis, Missouri. He was in Hot Springs for a family reunion, and he traveled back roads in Missouri. He was in Memphis, Tennessee several times, Forrest City many times, and I think he also visited Chicago. So, he did travel, and I must say, more than most people, but where he traveled he had been before.
We had other trips planned, but they did not materialize. We, like our son, travel.
Well, I made it to Denver! :-)
Hope to do better in '09, but probably won't keep up with you.
Love, Dad
