 Holy cow!   | Your country... So, what's the one single physical thing that defines your country? Forget about people and politics, I'm talkin' about physical stuff here. For me, there's a lot of stuff that says 'home' about my country, but I reckon Table Mountain kinda trumps them all. What's yours? ---------------- Hypography Forums Moderator IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII Bovinely blessed be thee. | |

For instance, if I was an American, I could say "The Statue of Liberty", as the one defining symbol. A Frenchman might say "The Eiffel Tower" or something. As far as I'm concerned, Table Mountain kinda does it for me, if I start describing the rest, I'd never get to the end, and I'll miss the point of the thread completely! ---------------- Hypography Forums Moderator IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII Bovinely blessed be thee. | ||

 Doing the Impossible | Re: Your country... The USA has plenty to choose from. I took a trip in 1993 where I saw Las Vegas up close and personal, and the following day Yosemite National Park. They are both unique in the world and amazing to experience. Bill ---------------- aka TheBigDog - Hypography Full Freaking Moderator   Become a Hypography sponsor!
