What are your best and worst travel experiences?

Favorite Answer

I currently have over a million miles in my frequent flyer account. with all the traveling over the years, it would be difficult to pick any one trip as "best" - all the travel has been enjoyable from the standpoint of the places I've been. every place has it's own unique character. Generally, coming across unexpected events or festivals has worked out well. For example, on one weekend trip to Seattle, it turned out that there was a great Salmon Days festival in Issaquah. Seeing the Salmon jumping the dam in town was a first; it was amazing how many salmon were lined up in the stream resting before making the attempt. In Leiden for a food festival, I came across a dragon boat competition on one of the canals and had a great day there. One thing I do every year is go to the Netherlands while Keukenhof Garden is open.

The negative experiences are more annoyances that go with travel and have been infrequent. When returning to Italy after a trip to my home in Denver, there was a storm that shut down the East Coast. I was routed through San Francisco to get back to Europe. Extra travel time, but not so bad since I actually arrived home only a couple of hours later than expected. There have been other times when flights were cancelled or connections missed that delayed a trip for a day, but I've only been stuck in an airport overnight once in Chicago. I've had bags not arrive with me a few times, but they always catch up in a day or two....Show more
