(I bought t-shirts and chocolates there! I've been there!) But then I feel guilty of course because I know darn well airport layovers don't really count. :) PS: What I really wanted to say? DUDE! I CURRENTLY LIVE IN IOWA. So if you do stop here - call me. We'll do coffee. I count the airport layovers… because that is the only way I can count Frankfort, Germany!!!

When someone asks, "Have you been to Wal~Mart", if you've stepped inside, or even made it to the parking lot, you're on Wal~Mart property. The same goes for cities and states. If you stepped foot, or drove, or whatever in a state/city, you have BEEN there. Have you explored it and gone sight~seeing? No, but you have indeed been there. I have always counted the places I've gone, even if it was just a drive through to get somewhere else, or when we stopped in Dallas on our way to Disney World. It still counts! It totally counts.

It's a crazy, crazy thing. I sort of count places I've only been in transportation vehicles. I always qualify them though, such as "I've been there once, in an airport." And honestly, for some locales, that's enough for me. As a native Nebraskan, I love to see Carhenge getting some publicity. It’s a crazy, crazy thing.
