How many of these famous places have you been to?

[_Rick_]

I've only been to the ones closest to home:
Eiffel Tower, Colosseum and Brandenburg Gate.

But then, I'm not much of a fan of these sights, since you can literally see them on every other post card.
It's the less visited places, that are more interesting.

Oh, and another omission on that list, and one that I visited: Sagrada Familia in Barcelona.

I've been to New York City a few times, but had no interest in going to the Statue of Liberty so I left it off.

Doesn't surprise me given most Canadians native hatred of all things Freedom related.

I got close to a vagina last night. That's worth more than going to all the landmarks mentioned here.

can't, I'm married but my spouse has tighter security around that thing than they do at Fort Knox.

Technically there's a Parthenon in Nashville, TN too.

Counting that I've been there and the Statue of Liberty. I've flown through San Francisco, so I've seen the GGB....just not been on it.

Statue of Liberty
Niagara Falls
Capitol Hill

I can also do them one better because I visited an alternate universe where Washington D.C doesn't exist and that Philadelphia still serves as the U.S. capital and I snapped this picture of Independence hall. True story. How's that for a different angle?

They also failed to develop color photography.
