'Sesame Street' trips

[bandit957]

Anyone else remember episodes of 'Sesame Street' where they went on trips? Sometimes they'd do maybe a week full of shows where the cast would go on a big trip somewhere.

The main one I remember was Hawaii in the late '70s. I think that was the one where Big Bird found a mountain that looked like Snuffy. I think it was also the one where Luis stayed home and worked at his shop. I know YouTube had some scenes where Oscar the Grouch went through the metal detector at the airport, and someone mentioned how these scenes were full of adult jokes.

I know they had a trip to New Mexico when I was just too young to remember. Occasionally, someone who is slightly older will say to me, "Remember when 'Sesame Street' went to New Mexico?" I think they also had a trip to Puerto Rico around the time I got too old for the show.

I think there might be some other trips in that era I'm missing.

There was a special, "Big Bird in China".  But that wasn't a part of Sesame Street itself.
