I've been in the Oval Office.

The top of Notre Dame, all the way up to the bell tower, which is accessed through climbing a ladder, after making your way up a cramped spiral stairwell.

How'd you manage to get into the Oval Office? Was it part of a White House tour?

Massena, NY during the winter of 92/93. It was -30 some degrees F one day! It was painful being outside for even the briefest of moments.

Carlsbad Caverns are definitely pretty cool.

Some other places I forgot about that were pretty cool were:

Abbey Road - instead of doing the typical Beatles pose of walking across the street, I just laid down on the walkway, and got honked at by the cars I was holding up (not sure why anyone living in London would regularly drive down that road, knowing it's bound to be flooded with tourists).

FBI Headquarters - I was in D.C. the week before September 11th, and went on the tour of the J. Edgar Hoover Bldg while there. It's been closed to the public ever since, which is unfortunate, because they let you see a lot of cool stuff.

Gettysburg - pretty fun place to go if you have any interest in history. Can feel pretty eerie walking through the cemetery or battlefields.

Winter 1996. I was 15. NYC and Rockefeller Center. Ice Skating and seeing the big tree. Then went outside of NYC to Hunter Mountain and went sking. Boy do I suck.

Oh and I bought one of those famous Watches on a street corner. 4 months later the hands fell off. lmao

Yosemite or Redwood State Park.

[Forrestandjen07]

i would say the bahamas but it was anything but cool

hot as hell

I've been in many places across Europe and it's hard to decide what would be the coolest. So taking into account the OP of this thread that has been in the oval office, I would say that the European Parliament here in Brussels could be the coolest place I've ever been to. Though I could not really take a tour of the huge building since I was there for work.

Persian Gulf '87-'88 and the North Atlantic winter of '95.

I've been to lots of cool places recently:

-Walking tours of inside the Pirates and Haunted Mansion attractions in Disneyland.
-Camping at the foot of Devil's Tower.
-Went Ghost Hunting with Jason & Grant at the Shining Hotel.
-Sun Studios in Memphis. Stepped on the exact spot where The King recorded his first song.
-Had a Halloween party inside the actual Psycho House in Universal City.
-Spent some time inside the original Michael Myers house in Pasadena,CA.

That's what I got just on the top of my head.

I had chicken kiev in Kiev, Ukraine when I was in the USAF years back and thought that was kind of neat-o.
