This was my first thought when I saw your meme lol. Only other major destination might be Chicago
Orlando for Disney world
FTFY
Woo Gatorland! Best school field trip ever! (Okay but riding Space Mountain with the lights on was still neat...)
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.
Lol, fair point
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.
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).
I mean, Americans do the same thing.
Those are called flyover states for a reason.
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
