How many US states? 
23, plus DC and Puerto Rico.

How many Canadian provinces?
2 - BC, QC

How many countries?
US, Canada, Italy, Ireland, Iceland, Bahamas, Aruba.  So 5?  7?

How many continents?
2, unless Aruba counts as part of South America (probably not).

Favorite place in US/Canada?
Tough call.  "Favorite familiar" is probably the Adirondacks.  We go there regularly.  "Favorite one-time visit" - probably Glacier National Park in Alaska.

First foreign country you visited?
Ireland - although I'd been to Canada a couple times before that.  Living a couple hours south of Montreal, it's hard to think of Canada as "foreign."

What was your most recent trip?
Girls trip to Reykjavik, Iceland last August.
