Thanks for the welcome. I have never been to Hong Kong. Only time I have been out of the country was a couple of days in Holland many years ago!

I think the only places I would be interested in seeing would be perhaps Hong Kong, especially for the buses. I wouldn't mind going to America as I rather like their variety of long distance trucks. Finally, Japan as I have a few Japanese train simulators on my PS2 which use real video footage. There is one journey (in demo mode) which meanders through the Japanese countryside for almost an hour, which gives a fair impression of the country. At one point the train is travelling next to the sea! Trying to control the thing yourself is not easy. At least with demo mode you can sit back and watch the scenery.

Having no passport and a shortage of sufficient money for such jaunts I am not thinking of any long trips at the moment.
