Well, let's see----ME!! <BR> <BR> <BR>I've never been to me!
|
My fictional place would be a spacious, clean hotel room in London for a reasonable price.
|
But R, <BR>I bet you've sipped champagne on a yacht and have seen some things that a woman isn't suppose to see. You've been to paradise .....

Tolkien's Rivendell, in Dr. Who's Tardis anywhere, on Voyager to Delta Quadrant, Atticus Finch's home in To Kill A Mockingbird (provided a young G. Peck is AF), Camelot.
|
Green Mansions.
I would like to observe the exotic romance that takes place in the South American rainforest between Abel and Rima, the birdlike creature. But I'm sure the mosquitoes would bother me so never mind. |
C. S. Lewis's Narnia chronicles were my favorite books of all time when I was little so I would have to say Narnia. On my way to Narnia, I would have to have a layover at Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory!!

I'd like to go down to the wonderland of Alice.
|
The land that sprung from the hand of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Macondo.

Shangri-La, Brigadoon, or Middle Earth (as long as I arrived at the height of the average hobbit)-- to start.
((c)) |
Hanging Gardens of Babylon
|
What a great find. I think this one predates my arrival on Fodor's.
I'd be torn, I think, between Devon with the Famous Five, Vikram Seth's India or Anita Shreve's New England |
And to go back to Rex's question Sidh is fairy in Gaelic. Banshee is white fairy.
|
Swedish children's author Astrid Lindgren set a novel on a small island in the Baltic Sea called Saltkrokan.
Fantastic place that I have been longing to go to ever since (if it only existed...) |
From "Enchanted April", the villa of San Salvatore!

I'll have to continue the 'voyage' as I'd have to travel...
Definitely end up in Pern riding a dragon -- that's been a fantasy of mine since I discovered the books 22 years ago!!! Narnia is a positive (post white-witch and pre-Last Battle). I'd love to visit Tir-na-n'og, but remember -- the sidhe (it is spelled that way and pronounced shee in gaelic) were not always nice. Think Puck on a BAD day. Bean Sidhe (pronounced Banshee) actually translates into Fairy Woman -- and traditionally her haunting wail heralded a death in the family. Where else? Oz of course... and Scotland of Jamie Fraser in Outlander :) Uh... running out of miles here. Time for a quick jaunt to Middle Earth? Or Hogwarts? If I could choose just one, though, it would be Anne McCaffrey's Pern, planet of Dragonriders, no religion, and instant transportation :D |
After driving around Salzburg for what seemed like forever just before Christmas I would have voted for the fictional Altstadt.
|
Molvania, of course!!
|
How about the planet Raiza? Any Star Trek Next Generation fans out there?
