I was thinking. We all like to go check out countries but how about seeing who can check out some place hardly anyone goes to or has heard about. For starters, I would like to one day visit LOS COCOS islands in Costa Rica. GALAPAGOS would be interesting too. The idea is that these places can be rough getting to. You cannot fly into LOS COCOS off of COSTA RICA. You can fly into the Galapagos via GUAYAQIL, but that effort would be awesome. I was on two islands I doubt any of you have been to because, for starters, you had to be either military, or military contractor to get to. Like IWO JIMA and DIEGO GARCIA. Anyone can fly into PANAMA CITY, but how about going out to DAVID or VOLCAN, BOQUETE or PUERTO ARMUELES. How about CONTADORA ISLAND or the SAN BLAS ISLANDS? Get my drift? Anyone can get to CANCUN but how about further into the YUCATAN like in MERIDA? Then UXMAL, or PROGRESSO? I'd like to hear about off the wall places or places that are hard to get to or visit. Ever gone to SOCORO ISLAND? In the REVILLAGIGEDOS? Everyone wants to go to PARIS or MADRID, but how about MALTA? How about the Italian island of SARDINIA. Man, I wanna hear about those backpackers that venture way in those kind of places. To make a long story short. If I see pictures of LOS COCOS with a story on how they got there, in my eyes, they have really accomplished something. Anyone can post pictures of MIAMI or PARIS, but try getting to a place like COCOS islands.
