Chinese Apple Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I took out Trinidad and Tobago, Antigua and Barbuda, Cyprus, Grendada, St. Kitts and Nevis, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines I think you used an earlier list -- a lot of the countries that have been taken out are still on the list you posted.

SeattleC Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Here are the rules...if you have been to any countries still on the list of the person above you remove them in your reply....I have taken out the ones I have been to. There are currently 203 countries in the world (Don't mind the numbers after the countries name) I also added Antartica even though I guess it is not a country but I feel should be on the list. PS..yes I know I am a dork. You are not a dork, this is my kind of list, but the post removals in this need to be reconciled, and since you started the thread, I hearby nominate you. I think I can take out China (what a good feeling, metaphorically speaking), Slovenia, and Costa Rica, but all the others probably have already been claimed. Link to post Share on other sites

The last two were only 24-48 hour stops on a Naval ship but I set foot there so it counts. Not sure if this was the latest list (I seem to remember a couple of these being mentioned already) but have trimmed out; Andorra, Bulgaria, Croatia, Fiji, Monaco, Nepal, Romania, Serbia, Singapore Link to post Share on other sites

Great concept, but now I've read the whole thread, and it's not even remotely working. It would be cool if it was set up as a poll to tally the countries viachicagoans have been to.
