re: IM wondering.. where is your first visit to out of country, if you could?

I saw most packages and things were cheaper going out of JFK. I was thinking of a one day train trip to New York. Amtrack has a 22 hour train ride and never done a train trip either. I may have to do Norway next year though, when I could go this year, there'll only be 3 or so hours of daylight and that would kinda put a damper on sightseeing

Will you be travelling alone, or will you be travelling with a group?

If you are looking to meet other travellers, I'd suggest going someplace you know will still be warm. People are far more likely to be out bar-hopping if its not cold outside. Spain or Italy are perfect in early Fall. The summer months can be brutal there, but the fall is quite nice. By Thanksgiving it can be cold.
