Don't really know if this is the right forum, but I just want to get a general idea as to where have you all traveled to, if possible?

I have been to, in no particular order:

Disneyworld ( Went there in 1991, although sadly I do not remember much of it)
Paramount's Kings Dominion ( Went here back in 1997-1998)
Busch Gardens WilliamsBurg ( I believe i went around the same time period, this time with my church)
Tryon Palace ( 4th grade trip in 1997-1998)
Washington DC ( And by extensiion Arlington, Virginia)- Went here for my fifth grade end of the year trip, and a wonderful experience it was! I saw the capitol, walked through the arlington cemetery, and even saw the tomb of the unknown soldier, as well as the changing of the guard..
Carowinds ( Went here in 1999, and then again in 2006)
New Orleans ( Went here in 2002). Even got to see where they stored the mardi gras floats..
Cherokee Mountains ( Year before that, which would be in 2001)

So, what other exciting places have you all been to?

I haven't left the borders of QLD. I haven't been all that far from Brisbane, really. A bit North, a bit South, and I started out in the West; been East out to sea. The few islands, most of the state forests. Probably been to most of the attractions in Brisbane as a kid
