Well Ladies and Gents while the definitive dates are still missing for it, we have the countries I am going a visiting. I am to be setting out this August and return next August. So I present my list, if anyone wants to try and meet me anywhere or offer any tips on what I should be seeing there.

We say goodbye to Belfast and touch down briefly in London where I may have a night then...

Japan
China
Cambodia
Lao
Vietnam
Thailand
Australia
New Zealand
America (Los Angles and San Fran)

and then back through London to Belfast and the real world

If you feel like swinging through DC on your way back, I know somewhere you could stay :D.

(California is like the wrong side of the continent, yo :P).

It's the damn ticket that lands me in California but I will look into ticket between the two ! (or you could holiday on the wrong side)

I will works it out

There are some pretty cheap flights between the coasts, especially when you take the exchange rate into account--you can grab non-stop flights from coast to coast for $100-$150, especially if you grab them way in advance. Whether or not it's worth it kind of depends on how long you'll be in the states (but DC is way more awesome than LA :D. SF is pretty sweet though).

For planning purposes: Closest airports to me here are BWI (Baltimore Washington), National (Also called Reagan National, but that gets political; it's almost like the Londonderry/Derry thing), and Dulles. JetBlue and Southwest airlines are the ones with the cheapest flights; Jetblue doesn't sell tickets through any website but its own.

And I'll look into that holiday thing :).

oh awesome for that level of information! I think I might be able to do three weeks in America. The around the world ticket is flexible on dates (as long as it's within the year) so I can be flexible. I love how there is always somewhere that has a political name

Only tip: TAKE A LOT OF PICTURES!! That way, the poor schmucks on your flist who can't go traveling can see what a good time you were having and live vicariously through you. ^_^

Other than that, I am on the other side of the country from Los Angeles and San Fran, so drat!

*giggles* I think I really will have to include the other coast of America! I've got prices on coast to coast flights
