Team9000 Across America

My knowledge of geography is sound. Do what Google Maps suggests you do and kayak across the ocean to Sydney, NSW.

We have Opera Houses, bridges, big pointy things, strange animals, large amounts of cocaine, beer, hot women, a surprisingly good set of Chinese restaurants, and me.

A lot of me.
 
The only thing I have going on where I live right now (Alma, Michigan) is a Scottish festival that takes place in my hometown, named the "Highland Festival." Although it only last through Friday-Monday, so you probably wouldn't be able to make it:p.
I also march in the parade and play music for the opening ceremonies for those weird Scottish sports. They are actually pretty cool to watch.
 
Here're some places I've picked out for my home city, (not hometown) Rochester (warning: most are probably boring history things). [Links too long, forced to use t9k.me]
> https://t9k.me/1Dp : Susan B. Anthony House
> https://t9k.me/1Dq : Natl. Museum of Play
> https://t9k.me/1Dr : G. Eastman House (Kodak)

> Also, Niagara Falls.
Even if you don't film someone (or yourself) riding the falls in a barrel, just go there anyway. It's not a trap at all. :3

I see St. Louis in there.
> Gateway Arch, definitely.
> Also, Budweiser.
Americans like beer, no question. http://www.budweisertours.com/z01/

Still sitting in New York?
> Head to Manhattan!
Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, Times^2 (cwutididther), motha-f**kin' Yankee Stadium (the new one :/ )...

Lastly, make sure you stop at
> the Continental Divide.
I still remember when I stopped there with my uncle. Ask me about it sometime, it's not much of a tale. xD
 
the six flags at IL is great and has a new roller coaster coming out soon called the X-Wing or something that looks epic. also you could stop by ma house *i live 20 min away from six flags* and say hi.
p.s. try not to get overloaded with awesomeness at the six flags... i dont care if there are a lot of hot women just try not to get overloaded. been there dont that xD.
have fun with your trip :D
EDIT: i saw you mark it :3
 
SFGA's new coaster is X-Flight. It looks cool, there is also one of the same type at DollyWood and Thorpe park built this year. Just get a Six Flags Season Pass and go to Great America, Great Adventure, New England, and Over Georgia :D
 
Lots of cool stuff. (I don't suggest coming at night, It's kind of dangerous at night but safe in the day like minecraft.)

1. Six Flags Over Georgia. Tons of rollercoasters, tons of fun.
2. World of Coca-Cola.
3. Underground Atlanta
4. Swamp and Ghost tours in Savannah. (Careful in this area)

In Ohio, you HAVE to go to Cedar Point. HAVE to.
Also Football Hall of Fame if you like football.
 
Kansas City, MO has worlds of fun and oceans of fun, couple decent roller coasters and the whatnot. seeing as that little dip into iowa and missouri has nothing in it yet.
 
Universal Orlando Resort in Florida
Six Flags in Georgia
White Water Rafting in Maine
sʞɹoʍ ɹǝpuoʍ is pretty interesting
EDIT:
St. Augustine has an old fort, and very historic parts around it. Many shops to go along with it.
 
- Strip Clubs: It's a known fact that Portland just so happens to have more strip clubs per capita than Las Vegas OR San Francisco. Hey, might as well enjoy yourself. (We also have a high rate of children trafficking...)
- Tons of microbreweries: Portland is like THE capital of microbreweries.
- Powell's City of Books: Being the biggest independent bookstore in America, it takes up a whole block. Plus their specialty computer and science bookstore recently moved across the street from it! (Bonus!) http://www.powells.com/locations/powells-city-of-books/
- Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI): It has a U.S. Navy submarine, an IMAX 5-story dome theatre (just watch a movie there and you life is complete), the biggest planetarium in the NW and lots of cool sciency stuff. http://www.omsi.edu/
- Portland Art Museum: Personally, I go to this place to see the hipsters. http://portlandartmuseum.org/
- Oregon Zoo: The largest paid attraction in Oregon, with 64 acres. It has tons of elephants and actually has an elephant breeding program, too. http://www.oregonzoo.org/
 
Definitely go to Portland, Oregon. It's the most populous city in Oregon and the most environmentally friendly city in the world! Plus it's hipster central. Check out...

- Voodoo Doughnuts (known for their Bacon Maple Bar and the Cock-N-Balls doughnut): People come across the country for this. Just look at their menu http://voodoodoughnut.com/menu.php
- Ground Kontrol Classic Arcade: It provides the "golden age" of gaming with over 60 classic video games and 27 pinball machines! http://groundkontrol.com/
- Lan Su Chinese Garden: Very well-kept garden featuring a tea house, a huge pond, and tours on the Chinese culture. What's interesting is that it's right in the middle of the city, lol. http://www.lansugarden.org/
- Oaks Park: This amusement park is in the top 10 oldest parks of America and has the biggest roller rink in the northwest. Buuut I would say that there's really only two very thrilling rides because it's more for kids. I think there's go-karts, too. http://www.oakspark.com/

I was going to write half the things you did, but you beat me to them.

You only forgot the Japanese garden, super smexy landscape and trees there.
