I mean, Americans do the same thing.
Those are called flyover states for a reason.
Also popular is renting a car in CA and then driving around there, to Vegas and some other national parks (a la Grand Canyon, Yellowstone and Utah’s).
This was my first thought when I saw your meme lol. Only other major destination might be Chicago
What about some of the famous national parks. I’ve seen a lot of europeans at places like Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Yellowstone
That was the other thing I had considered. I ultimately figured those tourists were in the minority, though, but I could be wrong. Visiting National parks will definitely lead to seeing more of the country seeing as most aren't that close to a major airport, but at the same time, it's a specific destination in the same way a major city is, in that many will come just for the park and then leave. Maybe that doesn't matter, though.
Orlando for Disney world
But fuck Florida on principle.
Maybe a coma might help you somewhere there... unless, that's what you are into, in which case I won't judge you
To be fair, it'd be a lot more difficult to comment if he was in a coma.
FTFY
Woo Gatorland! Best school field trip ever! (Okay but riding Space Mountain with the lights on was still neat...)
Tbh I would hardly give a fuck for any large city after New York. I'd much rather travel through rural areas.
seems like a pretty decent trip, just missing Seattle and the national parks
