    I've been to lots more, but I guess those are the places I wouldn't have guessed most of you went to.

    Been to all four--but I'll guess that you could have a winner in Thailand and DR if you can name an out-of-the-way town.

    Cape Town

    Probably a few more :/</div>

    I think you could have a winner or two here. I probably shouldn't count Dar's airport. I don't even know where Gujarat is. For Zambia, though, could you name a town or city? I'm guessing that it'll be hard to get away with an entire country on this list.

    there's that international soccer section of that site, so I'm guessing that it'll be hard to name a place in western europe that no one has been to, unless it is a really small town. Poland, though, could have legs, if you've gone to a really unusual place outside the big cities.

    You're better than that! I'm sure there are at least a dozen who have been to capetown. I've been to Dar--if the airport counts.
    </div>
    Yeah, I was also going to put Dubai, but thought that would also be too popular.
    Doubt many went to Zambia.
    </div>

    Dubai--that's awesome.

    You could have a shot with the top four, but there might be some basketball fans from there that follow players like Nenad Krstic. If you could cherry-pick a couple of small towns, instead of an entire country, you might have a winner, though.

    C'mon now, that was way too easy.

    I almost put that the day the thread was made.

    Gujarat is a state in India.

    Zambia... Hmm... I was there when I was 2ish, so I'd probably have to ask.

    Here's my list:

    --Flores, Guatemala
    --Do national parks and monuments count? If so, I'll go with a cave called Actun Tunichil Muknal, in Belize's Cayo District where I was last week. don't step on the mayan human skeletal remains
    --Garden City, Kansas. If there was a place in the U.S. I'd dare to name, this would be it.
    --Alesund, Norway. Only reachable by the coastal steamer that delivers mail.
    --Islands of Manihi and Rangiroa, in the Tuomotu archipelago. In the middle of nowhere.
    --Algiers, Algeria. Don't advise it.
    --Lake Sevan, Armenia. High in the Caucasus mountains. Halfway between the capitals of Armenia (Yerevan) and Georgia (Tblisi), if you drive it.
    --Golyazi, Turkey. A little fishing village near Iznik and Bursa.

    These are probably the most out-of-the way place I've been. Has anyone been there?

    You sure you've been to Detroit? Of all the words I can think of to describe it, none of them are anywhere near beautiful.

    Agreed. I'm sure he was being sarcastic.
