Great thread by the way! ^
not sure why, but this post struck me as really really sweet! (does that sound gay? Not that there is anything wrong with that...)

Fortunately I grew up with a grandmother who had a decent amount of money (b/c god knows we didn't) and she had the attitude to leave your family with memories, not money! I started traveling at age 7 and have seen a lot of the world. There are still places I long to see, like Australia and New Zealand (have you seen pics of cape kidnappers...WOW!), Rio, and most of all Africa...probably b/c of National Geogrpahic!
