Top 15 travel destinations on Earth, written by an alien for future ET tourists

Original prompt: Top 10 travel destinations on Earth, written by an alien for future ET tourists

  1. Antarctica: A spot so exclusive, very few humans even go there
  2. The Great Pyramids of Giza: Some humans, oddly enough, believe we made them
  3. Studios in Hollywood: Humans place a lot of value in their "movies" and "television" so see where it gets made!
  4. Venice: Soon to be the next Atlantis (don't tell the humans about that city though)
  5. The Mariana Trench: Visit the deepest spot on this planet. Humans know so little about the ocean that this is truly a chance to be daring on a foreign planet
  6. Mount Everest: The highest point on this planet, well worth the visit. Plus it's also a graveyard if you think about it and are into that sort of thing
  7. Göbekli Tepe: This is believed to be the oldest surviving building on the planet
  8. Bingham Canyon Mine: I know, I know, this is all over the posters for Earth because we can see it from space, but it really is beautiful and worth a trip
  9. La Brea Tar Pits: You can seethe creatures that we first saw when we spotted Earth
  10. The tablets displaying the Epic of Gilgamesh: This is the earliest surviving notable literature and the second oldest religious text on Earth. Some believe it is still a key text to the creatures called humans
  11. Najaf cemetery in Iraq: This is the largest cemetary on Earth. You can learn so much about a species by how they treat their dead
  12. Tokyo: Want to see a lot of humans rushing about in an urban habitat? This is your place as it is the most populated urban center in the world
  13. Greenland: Want to see more of Earth's nature and avoid humans? Visit the most sparsely populated country on Earth
  14. Brazil: Want to see a lot of kinds of Earth's flora and fauna? Hit up the most ecologically diverse country on the planet
  15. Dolní Věstonice: Want to know more about the strange creatures called Humans? Visit the oldest permanent human settlement that has ever been found

Starting my parental journey, part 9

You can  read part 1 here ,  read part 2 here ,  read part 3 here ,  read part 4 here ,  read part 5 here ,  read part 6 here ,  read part 7 here , and read part 8 here . I've officially begun my second cycle. On Wednesday, I had a virtual appointment, yesterday I had my baseline ultrasound, and today I began injections again. On Wednesday, I expressed my concern about my weight and was told not to fret about it for this cycle but that I should work on it for my health. I got told some vague things about measuring my food by volume and weight and that being the key the weight loss (idk it sounded weird to me). But other than that my appointment went well and I really liked the PA I met with. Overall, she was supportive and encouraging me to advocate for myself. Yesterday, I had to get up earlier than normal (6am) so I could make it to my ultrasound at 7am (I have asked for future ultrasounds to be at 8am). I got weighed (ugh), had my blood drawn, and t...

Starting my parental journey, part 8

You can  read part 1 here ,  read part 2 here ,  read part 3 here ,  read part 4 here ,  read part 5 here , read part 6 here , and read part 7 here . I have begun birth control again. Now, that may sound like I'm bailing out of my fertility journey, but it's actually the opposite. In order to get everything ready for the egg retrieval, I need to hop on birth control for a little bit and then hop off. It feels a bit odd to be taking oral birth control, have a birth control arm implant, and be getting ready for an egg retrieval--but that's how it goes (for me at least--getting to keep the arm implant is rare or so I'm told). People have asked me how I'm feeling about this round of egg retrieval and honestly, I haven't thought about it much yet. I am focused on a big stressful event for work and then C2E2 (Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo--basically, Chicago's Comic-Con) which I attend every year. Because of these two events (one stressful, one fun), I del...
