I like to get lost. It opens up all new adventures and sights that I would otherwise not see. When one stays on the straight a-way, sometimes the best things are missed.

If you could get lost anywhere, where would you like that to be?

I would like to be lost in London or Rome.
 
I like geting lost on the net ... though I haven't done it in a while
 
In the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader's locker room works for me.
 
when I was like 21 we used to just drive around in some new area and take turns picking the next street to go down until we were good and lost...

...and excuse to drive and roll doobers :cool:

Vegas might prove to be very interesting.

Other than that, Vienna.

You can't get lost in Vegas... I would be at your side, dolly. ;-)





Now when will someone say..... "I want to be lost in HIS arms?" LOL

I got lost in Amsterdam once. On foot. It was interesting to put it mildly.

Was it in the 'blue' light district?
 
I have a recurring nightmare - I am lost somewhere....each dream it's a different place, a city, a wood, a beach and the tides coming in. Always there's a sense of urgency and some fear. I usually wake up feeling uncomfortable.

So, no, I don't like getting lost....unless it's in the sense of the song.

Actually, its pretty easy to find your way around there. The section I got lost in was an edge near the central train station. Lots of garbage piled up next to the canals. Lots of people with dilated pupils stumbling around.

Germany is a pretty cool place to get lost in. :)

I don't speak German.... I have a good mastery of English and because I am half Italian, I could maybe get around there alright. But it is interesting to think about being lost somewhere that you don't know the language at all. Now, there's an adventure... trying to communicate, too. Gives a new twist to being lost.

Being lost has never scared me. I love the idea of it, really.

I don't speak German either but I did manage to live there for 3 years and I managed pretty good with my handy dandy book translator. Germany has some of the most amazing things to see, it was breath taking to say the least.

It was in November so it got dark early and the sun rose late.

I enjoyed it a lot. Even when I was "lost".

Exploring new things and new places is a major trip for me.

My only rule for travel is to make sure I have have confirmed reservations to get home, at least when its foreign travel.

I would love to see Berlin...

and the Black Forest from the air. LOL

(Forest DO scare me.... too many all trees and no horizon to be seen.)

Pssssttt.....It's not really black! :D *lol*

While I was there I visited Berchtesgaden and the Linderhof castle, also the Neuschwanstein castle just to name a few....a very magical place.

OOhh...then that would prove to be even more interesting. I wonder if we could get lost and pretend to be Vegas Show Grrls. ;-)

(I am only 61 inches tall... Show girls need long legs LOL.
Maybe we could do the ShortShowGirl Revue!!! Are you short, too?)

No matter, I know you and I could really kick up our heels together in Las Vegas. ;-)

Somewhere in the Caribbean for me.

Now you brought up another thought... being lost at sea.

I have mixed feelings about that. Somedays I think it would be wonderful to just board a boat and sail off to wherever it goes.

I have a cross-stitch pattern of the Neuschwanstein castle. Someday I plan to do it. I bet it was breathtaking to see! I do so envy you. :)

You know that the castle at Disneyland is fashioned after that castle?
