Borders you’ve crossed without flying

[Gimpel]

I’ve always been fascinated by land borders and find them really cool, it’s amazing to me that you can cross by foot or car and in a few minutes time and a few feet away be in a totally different place which looks different and has a different language. I’m curious to know about the land borders other people have crossed and see if there’s any really off the beaten track borders crossed by DDFers.
I’ll start with my list.
I’m not counting countries in the EU, trains or boats also count.
Canada-USA
USA-Mexico (Both ways)
Zambia-Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe-Botswana (Both ways)
Israel-Egypt (both ways)
Israel-Jordan (both ways)
Spain-Gibraltar UK (both ways)

Looking forward to seeing your lists and adding more to mine

Didn't quite happen like this, but

[YitzyS]

I though we would have a story like this...

British Airways plane in circling, waiting for clearance to land at the Berlin Airport. Air traffic control starts cracking jokes, poking fun at the British pilots. Pilots start getting frustrated, and keep asking for permission to land. Finally, the German air control guy spits out, "Patience, pilot. It works different here. Did you ever fly to Berlin before?"

To which the pilot responded, "Yes, multiple times, in 1945. But I never landed. I just dropped off packages."

Just to clarify when I said EU I meant the Schengen zone or pretty much any area where there’s no real border in Europe cuz those don’t feel like real borders.
