STUFF I WANT TO DO

I blogged last week about some things I've been doing–things that were on my Stuff I Want To Do List, aka my Bucket List.  Well, even though I've knocked off a few things, there are still a lot on there.  And while perusing my list, I've noted that even though I'm not normally an adrenaline-junkie, there are some sort of risky things on my list.  For instance, zip lining.

All I'd have to do is sit there--how hard can it be??



I just think this looks like a lot of fun–zooming along a little wire, hundreds of feet in the air.  I'm not sure where I'm going to zip line–but it's going to happen.  And I know I'll be screaming the entire way.


Something else I'd like to do is take a hot air balloon ride. I can't figure out why because I don't really like heights.  But something about it just appeals to me. I'd like to take my balloon ride over the wine country in California.  Hopefully in a spot where there aren't any power lines.

Not a power line in sight. Whew!



I'd also like to try parasailing.  Again, I'm not sure why.  Maybe it's because I know it would leave me breathless, and there's a saying about how life shouldn't be measured by how many breaths you take but by the moments that leave you breathless.  I envision my future parasailing adventure taking place over warm, Caribbean waters.  Yes, I can see it now…

I can almost feel the wind in my hair...



On a tamer note, I'd also like ride on the Orient Express, cruise the Mediterranean, and attend a tennis match at all four of the Grand Slam events.

Tennis, anyone?



 


So tell me–what are some things that you'd like to do?  What if time and money were unlimited?  How about something you know you wouldn't do in a million years? (you'll never see me jump out of plane!)
