Let's find out. The current list will be kept above in this post

We need a couple of rules though and here it is.

#1 - You have to have visited the country in the most recent post, before you can add a country. A photo of both countries is desirable but not essential.

#2 - If your post is not responded to in 7 days, you may add another country and receive a point. The points are worthless.

I will get things started.

Country #1 is Myanmar

Here I am before crossing from Thailand into Myanmar.

Here is the old border on a bridge from Mai Sai into Myanmar. It looks different now.

I stayed just long enough to take this picture.

I'll bet these folks never expected to show up on a baseball card forum.

If you have been to Myanmar, what is county #2?

[ullmandds]

Well Frank...not sure we can cover the whole world here on net54...but probably 3/4 atleast!!!!! When I read this post the other day I thought Thailand was the country...and I was ready to play! Unfortunately I had planned to go to Myanmar but my dad got sick and I had to cancel...does that count?????

[SmokyBurgess]

I was in Burma in 1981 and did the Rangoon, Pagan, Mandalay route. Temples, leg-rowers and beautiful tour guides.

Next country: India

(Sorry, no way to scan pix)

[egri]

I was in India for about two weeks in December 2015 and January 2016. Saw a bunch of the tourist traps (Taj Mahal, Golden Temple) and some factories. I will try to post a few pictures later. We flew Emirates, with a layover in country #3, the UAE.

There were only two rules, both of which have been broken, but that's okay. Perhaps they were too restrictive. If no one objects, I will add Denny's list to the first post and add a few more of my own.

Pictures are always welcome and new countries will be welcomed. Getting to two hundred countries with the original rules would take forever.

This post reminds me of Johnny Cash

Feel free to sing along

I was totin' my pack
Along the dusty Winnemucca road
When along came a semi
With a high and canvas covered load
"If you're going to Winnemucca, Mack
With me you can ride."
So I climbed into the cab
And then I settled down inside
He asked me if I'd seen a road
With so much dust and sand
And I said,
"Listen, Bud I've traveled
Every road in this here land."
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
'Cross the deserts bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Of travel, I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere.
Been to Reno, Chicago, Fargo, Minnesota,
Buffalo, Toronto, Winslow, Sarasota,
Wichita, Tulsa, Ottawa, Oklahoma,
Tampa, Panama, Mattawa, La Paloma,
Bangor, Baltimore, Salvador, Amarillo,
Tocopilla, Barranquilla, and Padilla, I'm a killer.
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
'Cross the deserts bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Of travel, I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere.
Boston, Charleston, Dayton, Louisiana,
Washington, Houston, Kingston, Texarkana,
Monterey, Ferriday, Santa Fe, Tallapoosa
Glen Rock, Black Rock, Little Rock, Oskaloosa,
Tennessee, Hennessey, Chicopee, Spirit Lake,
Grand Lake, Devil's Lake, Crater Lake, for Pete's sake;
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
'Cross the deserts bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Of travel, I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere.
Louisville, Nashville, Knoxville, Ombabika,
Shefferville, Jacksonville, Waterville, Costa Rica,
Pittsfield, Springfield, Bakersfield, Shreveport,
Hackensack, Cadillac, Fond do Lac, Davenport,
Idaho, Jellicoe, Argentina, Diamontina,
Pasadena, Catalina, see what I mean, sir;
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
'Cross the deserts bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Of travel, I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere.
Pittsburgh, Parkersburg, Gravellburg, Colorado,
Ellensburg, Rexburg, Vicksburg, Eldorado,
Larrimore, Atmore, Haverstraw, Chattanika,
Chaska, Nebraska, Alaska, Opelika,
Baraboo, Waterloo, Kalamazoo, Kansas City,
Sioux City, Cedar City, Dodge City, what a pity;
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
'Cross the deserts bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Of travel, I've had my share, man
"I know some place you haven't been."
I've been everywhere."

Only two rules exist

Visiting the prior country (currently Indonesia)

And pictures of your addition.


Am I upset with Enfuego? Hell no.

He's not the only rule breaker,

And sooner or later we are going to need Kyrgyzstan

[danski496]

Tunisia, Iran, Iraq, Turkey, Spain, France, Italy, Greece and Iceland - all in the military, some fun, some not so. I didn't read all the posts so don't know if they were already covered.

[ullmandds]

boy has this thread evolved! i've been to about 48 countries...nice try frank!

[Griffins]

the rules didn't seem that complicated
