Oh, I'll go with the obvious and guess my adopted home state:
8) Texas because I wanted to be a cowboy.

I did indeed really really wanted to go to Kentucky because I loved the Daniel Boone show (and history in general) and Daniel Boone settled Kentucky.
Daniel Boone was a man. Yes a big man. With an eye like an eagle and as tall as a mountain was he. Daniel Boone was a man. Yes a big man. He was brave, he was fearless and as tough as a mighty oak tree.
From the coonskin cap on the top of ol Dan to the heel of his rawhide shoe The rippin'est roarin'est fightin'est man the frontier ever knew.
Daniel Boone was a man. Yes a big man. And he fought for America to make all Americans free. What a Boone. What a doer. What a dream comer truer was he.

Oh and a PS: The only other one I didn't just make up was Arizona to see the Grand Canyon. I also wanted to see Mount Rushmore, but did not know what state it was in when I was young.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Pyramids were scary and fulll of dead people, so nope. Windmills and clogs and cheese didn't tempt me as a child Zebras are interesting, and I'd like to go there now, but as a child, I didn't even know they were in South Africa.
Good guesses though...

Hopefully by now you realize that you can throw a boomerang wherever you are in the world.

Not to Australia though... and I did throw a boomerang in high school for Physics. And you can see elephants in zoos... so it's not India either.
Try some more?
