Mae, if you plan on going to Fenway, start saving now. It's the most expensive ticket and the park with the most expensive beers.
Gravy Queen, Himself and I aren't the Travel-Abroad kind of people either. Considering the contiguous 48 states are over 3,000,000 square miles, we have more territory to cover than the entire EU. The regional cuisines are varied enough that you have plenty of opportunity to be adventurous with food choices. When we're out, Himself takes bigger chances with the protein, while I'm always game to try some different vegetable or fruit. Although I think I enjoyed all types of foods as a child (kidney stew, kiszka-blood sausage, czarnina-duck's blood soup) I just can't come up with a taste for them now. However, I'm fine with trying a familiar meat or fish prepared in a different way. That said, I still like my sushi well-done.
