Summer Vacation (Posted on 2003-10-22) Difficulty: 2 of 5
Ted is a world traveller. This summer, however, he decided to see the good old U.S.A.

On his vacation he went to the northernmost, southermost, easternmost and westernmost points in the U.S. (not necessarily in that order).

He did it without ever crossing a landborder between states and only leaving U.S. controlled territory once.

How did he do it?

Looking at the map it appears that the northernmost and westernmost points of the USA are both in Alaska, the easternmost point is in Maine and the Southernmost point is in Florida.

So start in Alaska by visiting the N'most and W'most points. Travel across Canada to Maine to vist the E'most. Finally sail down the east coast of the USA to the tip of Florida.

As far as I can see this meets the criteria of not crossing landborders and only leaving US territory once.
