So some things I have done;

Drank kava that legendary South Pacific ceremonial stimulant.

Tried Kopi Luwak, that civet coffee. $20.00 per cup in Bangkok.

Ate some durian, that sweet but ultra skinky fruit in SE Asia.

Saw the Taj Mahal.

Saw the western wall in Jerusalem and the birth place of Christ, below the altar in the Church of the Nativity, Bethlehem and so many wonders in Israel including floating in the Dead Sea.

Saw the Sistene chapel.

I still want to step foot on Africa and South America.

Want to see the Eiffel Tower.

Love to go to Berlin for the history.

Want to see the northern lights someday.

Want to see the Sydney opera house.

Want to see Petra in Jordan.

St. Peter's in Rome.

Angor wat in Cambodia.

The USS Missouri in Pearl Harbor.

The Enola Gay, the B29 that dropped the first A-bomb

I am sure there are more but that's enough for now.

What's yours?

This is a great question.

My bucket list includes:

Vast trips throughout Europe, South America, Australia/New Zealand, Israel and if it's safe, surrounding countries.

I, too, know that as others answer this question, I'll say "oh yeah, I want to do that too"

Bucket list would be a Norwegian Fjords cruise, a Hawaiian Cruise, and to hit the lottery, call Carnival, deposit a sum of money with them and just keep cruising, they can let me know when I run low and I will refill my account.
