Usa Travel Forum

Hi, I'm spanish. I'm looking for a city I've seen just in pics. It's a city that must be in USA (or maybe in Canada, but I think it's USA). The city have got some lakes near (not necessary the Great Lakes) and there's a hospital whose building is circular. I would be pleased if anybody could tell me if know a city similar like that. It's important for me to find a person who lives there. Thanks

Hola, soy español. Estoy buscando una ciudad que sólo he visto en fotos. Es una ciudad que debe estar en USA (o quizás en Canadá, pero creo que es de USA). Tiene algunos lagos cerca (no necesariamente los GRandes Lagos), y hay un hospital cuyo edificio es circular. Agradecería que alguien pudiera decirme si conoce una ciudad parecida a esta. Es importante que encuentre a una persona que vive allí. Gracias.

Hi, a couple of years ago my wife and I bought a Hiace at Kings Cross market in Sydney Oz while we were travelling over there, and drove the Eastern Circle, 17000 kms then flogged it on our return. Is it poss. to do the same in USA, ie buy a wagon and then flog it 2 months later (in the States), bearing in mind I'd be a British holiday maker and going to be in USA for about 2 months. Also if it is poss. how does the insurance work out? Many thanks for any advice.

Wondering if anyone had tips for travelling in America (family of four) at Christmas time. I want to got to Disneyland and Universal Studios and then to New York. What is best way to get to New York? Is flying expensive? Is there a rail service? I was thinking of hiring a car/motorhome but no prices online for Winter???

Any good ideas appreciated.

I have a flight booked from here in Australia to the USA for April 16th. It's a return flight due back on the 15th of June. The trip at the moment is on a regular Visa waiver and I probably only have about $5000 with me to make it.. ( which is plenty as I know a lot of people in the US who will take care of me while I'm there for food, lodging etc..) It's a holiday so I don't plan to work on the trip legally or otherwise. I also have friends in Canada and wouldn't mind crossing into there also to see them. What would I need to do to be able to do that and is there any Visa or anything I have to apply for?

Secondly I'd like to spend as much time as possible overseas as I can.. Is there a legal way of not taking my plane home in June as planned but instead going over to Canada and taking a new flight back to Australia which I pay for when I'm there whenever the time is up? How long can I stay in Canada without having to go home? Anyway if anyone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. I don't really know any of the rules. Cheers.

Hello, I’m Paul.....

Im planning a coast to coast trip to the USA between 31/05/08 and 12/07/08 starting in New York and finishing in LA, with my girlfriend and would really be grateful for any advice given. I have a few questions....

Is six weeks long enough to travel?
Is £3000 excluding flights for 2 people enough cash?
What accommodation would you recommend?
What methods of travel are best?
Does anyone know a fairly pleasant but cheap hotel in New York?

We were looking at Greyhound and Amtrack but not sure which is the best option, kinda worried about the accommodation situation too. Another thing is my girlfriend is 20 and is able to drive, is this possible in the USA? She would only drive for around 2 weeks.

Thinking of visting New York, Niagra Falls, Chicago, Yosemite, Yellowstone, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon.... do you recommend any other places?

Any general advice?

Thank you very much, any replies would be grateful.

My friend and I are two males both over 60 years of age and we would like to travel around america getting to meet people and visit interesting places we have been considering moving from place to place by Greyhound/Amtrak can you give us advise on where to go and which is the best method of travel.
I should add that we are getting to old to rough it for the whole of our journey.

Hi,

I am visiting both Memphis and New Orleans in the fall and wondered what the best way to travel between the 2 is without flying?

Cheers,
