Hi

Someone mentioned enjoying this thread so I thought I'd do another one. IIRC you had to post three places and other MNers said if they'd been there. If they hadn't, you won my undying respect.

No impossible places like the inside of a nuclear reactor this time. As small as a pub, as big as a country.

I'll start:

Tikal, Guatemala
Alice Springs, Australia (easy one!)
Jinja, Uganda

GO!

Romania during the communist regime (1970s)
Black Sail Youth Hostel
Slept in a slate mine in N Wales

My DH went to Romania in the communist era as well but later on in the early 80s. He has also been to Syria.

Had a BBQ at the bottom of the Holmenkollbakken ski jump near Oslo.

I haven't had a BBQ there but I have been there.

I've been to Suomenlinna
I've been to the bell tower of York Minster and didn't enjoy the walk across the roof

That reminded me of the the Slieve League cliffs in Donegal which have a very scary road up to them (or did when we went)

Thanks to a poster on the first page mentioning The Pentagon (been), I've got some similar American ones:

The stage of the Dolby/Oscars theatre in Hollywood
Inside the House of Representatives in the Capitol building
Inside the Breaking Bad RV

My more English choices include:
The ATC tower at Manchester Airport
Backstage at G.A.Y
On the BBC Breakfast sofa

I've had lunch in the Capitol building: Chicken in a basket.
