Peak season (summer) in Greece can be a nightmare...but if you like to party it can be a blast as well. The place is just loaded with gringos.... But....it's one of those places you really have to go see. Athens of course has some great sights...but some of the Islands groups are what everyone thinks of when they dream of Greece.C.H.U.D.

Before I die, I want to see...
1.) Australia. Outback and Great Barrier Reef. Want to see an Aussie Rules Football game live after hoisting a few pints.
2.) Germany. (preferably during Oktoberfest
) Home of my ancestors. Would like to find out where exactly my relatives originated from. Got part of a family tree done but want to find out more about my earlier ancestry.
3.) Banff / Lake Louise in Alberta. Buddy of mine was there a couple times when he went to the Calgary Stampede. Said scenery totally blew him away. Love the mountains.
4.) Grand Canyon. Natural sites like this and Niagara Falls (Canadian side, especially) leave an indelible impression on me.
5.) tie between Louisiana and Kansas City. Specifically during the Crawfish Festival in May. Nothing like eating Cajun food and dancing to Zydeco music!
For KC, I want to go during the American Royal BBQ. I'm a BBQ fanatic and would love nothing more than to be a judge!!
Been to the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. Though the town itself is a tourist trap, the Spanish cable car and the Maid of the Mist are awesome. The most awesome sight is just standing near the railing of the falls and seeing the immense amount of water heading over the falls.-digital dean

Banff! My parents love mountains. They've been all over the Rockies, but they said this part of Canada is the most scenic of them all.

Freaky, Harv...I've used that first Banff image you posted in a class I took.
The pyramids would be cool. I didn't see the Mexican ones you posted, Mad, but I did see another set which I'm sure I have pictures of somewhere...they were in the middle of a jungle and extremely cool."Greatness is not an act... but a habit.Greatness is not an act... but a habit." -Greg Jennings

Partial: GREAT THREAD!!
Rats, before you die, visit Iceland.
Reason: God lives there. I swear!
The island is only 7000 years old, that is really young geographically. You get the feeling, God is still working on Iceland. My visit there in 1993 changed the way I think. Go there.
Second tip would once have been China, but, they've changed the place...

I've heard Iceland is scenic. Through my work I can go there for cheap, but I haven't taken advantage of it yet."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson
