    I´ve been to:

    Spain - basically just a second class Portugal
    England - Nice...London is cool for shopping
    Scotland - Really liked edinburgh and the highlands area...specially near Inverness....stayed in a very cool victorian style hotel...the views were amazing.
    Italy - Slept one night in Rome because the airline screwed up a connection flight....didn´t see enough to have an opinion....all I can say is that I never been to a country were the customs officers were so hot!
    Israel - Been there twice on work........the strip clubs are first class! other than that....

    My father always talked about Antwerpen (he was a sailor when he was young) I always assumed it was Dutch.
    Now that I look at a map it is indeed in Belgium and you have to sail into Holland to get there by boat.

    I shall update my list.
