Have you ever been to an ocean?

The only beaches I live even several hours from are on Lake Erie and Lake Michigan, but I've been all up and down most of the East Coast, down to the Gulf a couple times, and I just got back from the Galapagos Islands, so I have now seen/been to beaches on/swam in/seen the sunrise and sunset over the Pacific too.
 
We still have not had a reply from someone that has never seen an ocean in person. I have the Atlantic Ocean ,10 minute ride down the road.
 
I've seen the Atlantic a couple of times out of Asbury Park, NJ and
the North Sea out of Oslo, Norway, if that counts. :)

Both were a long time ago, however. :(
 
been to both coasts(visit relatives in Fla) live in the PNW(Pacific Northwest)
Pacific, Atlantic and the Gulf.

I live 2 hours from a desert and an hour from the Ocean. 30 minutes to Puget Sound 40 minutes to Mt Rainier. I get a picture card every time I drive home and the weather is clear.
a bit further west to Hoods Canal.
 
only ocean I have not really seen is the antarctic ocean, been to the gulf of Mexico a bunch, Atlantic regularly, the great lakes regularly, pacific at least twice a year.
 
I have seen and been in the Atlantic (both stateside and from Europe), Pacific (CONUS stateside, Waikiki, and Asia), Med.(Italy & Greece), Gulf of Mexico (Florida & Texas) & the Yellow Sea, Lake Superior, Michigan, Erie, Ontario. Seen the Austrian and Italian Alps (skied the Materhorn), been on glaciers, lived in the Rockies & the Appallacians, lived in 6 different countries, visited at least 18 different countries, have been in every state in the Union at least once. Have seen many of the man made wonders of the world. Graduated from high school and had attended 13 different schools.

I have been to places most people can only read about.......thanks to the US Army.
