Places I Would Love to See in the USA- Day 4

Happy 4th of July!  I actually have an American connection.  My Grandma was born in Iowa.  Her parents moved to Canada when she was young.  I hope all of you have a wonderful day and a safe holiday!   In honour of the 4th of July, I thought I would tell you some of the places I would love to see in the United States.  I have been to the States a few times, but there is always more to see!

1.)  New York City-  I used to dream of living there!   Ha ha!  It might me a little too fast-paced for me, but I would like the chance to visit and see all the sights.

2.)  Maine- I read a lot and a lot of novels are set in Maine.  The scenery sounds beautiful and I would love to see it for myself!

3.)  Portland, Oregon- This one is specifically to see Powell's bookstore.  I am such an nerd and love to read!  This bookstore is the largest in the world and has more than 1 million books!  Gah!  I would love to see it!

4.)  Disneyland, California-  I would love to take Miss. E when she is a little older.  I went to Disneyland with my family when I was a kid and I was absolutely enchanted.  I think she would love it!

5.)  South Carolina-  A lot of my blog friends seem to be from here or near here and I would love the opportunity to meet some of them in real life!  In addition to that, South Carolina seems beautiful with a lot to offer.  The architecture, history, and scenery alone would be a big draw.

Have a happy 4th of July, my friends!
This flower totally reminds me of a firework!

  1. I want to visit New York as well, but like you said, it might be a little fast-paced for me! Haha! I love South Carolina! You should really visit Charleston, SC.

    1. Yes, Charleston seems like it would be super beautiful! I think that the buildings alone would enthrall me!

  2. Paul and I were just debating whether living in NYC for a year would be fun or exhausting and stressful! :) I would love for you to come to SC...but I have to say, it's not the best state in the South. Definitely come to North Carolina or Tennessee and I'll meet you there. :)

    1. Duly noted! I will have to look at the other Southern states that you mentioned! It would really be fun to visit someday!

  3. I live in the States, and of the places on your list, I've only been to NYC and Disneyland! So I'm not doing so hot myself, haha! Disneyland is wonderful, I love going there. I think it's even better than Disney World because there's fewer parks, so it's less overwhelming. I have been to Canada though--back before you needed a passport to get in! I went to Toronto and Niagara Falls, and it was so awesome. I'd love to go back someday!
