Have you ever visited a foreign country?

The only foreign country I visited very briefly is China. However, I spent most of my time on the highway, at the hotel, and then at the Beijing Airport before finally heading back home. Felt as if I had never left the USA except for the people and language. Everything else looked technologically identical.
 

Several. I did a tally a while back and forget the number. In the 20s? I’d have to pull out a map to do a proper list.
If you cruise in the Caribbean, you stop at many countries. Bermuda
New Zealand and Australia
US
France, Netherlands, Germany, Austria, etc

Definitely haven’t seen as many as I’d like to.
 
When I Honeymooned in Cuba I paid everything in American cash.

Seven bloody times in ten days the Cuban women short changed me during my money transactions. I really had to be on my toes, so it took away from the whole vacation. I'll never go back to that country.
 
Mexico (briefly - I visited a friend in Arizona and they took me somewhere that we could just walk across the border and shop in some tourist type street stalls), Canada (via walking across the Rainbow Bridge (can't remember how many times) at Niagara Falls in 2022 as part of my big retirement travel adventure), Wales, England, Israel, France. And later this month I've got plans to go to Greece and Turkey. Haven't decided about next year, maybe more of Europe, tho Iceland sounds okay, maybe both!
