====== Bucket List====== Some of these I've written directly from my imagination, others I've copy and pasted from elsewhere when I've stumbled across things I discovered I'd like to do. That's why the wording might sound slightly overly romantic in places. Other things I've added to this list that I took for granted, but are on other people's bucket list. * Visit one of those restaurants where you eat completely in the dark, like Dans le Noir in London * Hire a jet ski for a day and go exploring to a nearby tropical island * Visit Japan * Do a solo parachute jump * Take the ferry to Shetland and take part in Up Helly Aa, the Viking Fire Festival. * Take a tour of the Pripyat ghost town and Chernobyl exclusion zone * Fly a plane * Fly a hot air balloon * See the Aurora Borealis/Northern Lights * Swim with a dolphin * Watch a space shuttle launch * Scuba dive in a lagoon * Go to a sumo wrestling match * Ride a tram in San Francisco and take a tour of Alcatraz * Walk on the Great Wall of China * See Stonehenge * See the pyramids * Go to the top of the Eiffel Tower * Watch the sunset on a beach on my honeymoon * Visit one of the places where I can be in 4 US states at once * Visit the Hoover Dam * Ride the london eye * Go zorbing on water * Visit the Grand Canyon * Stay in a RV and drive across America * Stay in a castle * Swim in the dead sea * Visit a proper, hidden speakeasy like the ones you enter through a payphone ===== Done ===== * Have kids, a boy and a girl * Open my own private members club for geeks * Fire a 9mm hand gun, and an assault rifle on fully automatic * Snowboard down a glacier * Take a helicopter tour of Manhattan * Visit The Temple Bar, Dublin * Bathe in hot springs * Visit an active volcano * Ride a gondola in Venice * Go to the top of the Empire State Building * Dive into the waves in Honolulu, Hawaii * Watch the sunrise on a carribean island - I got up alone at 6am, sat in a hammock on the beach and drank a beer while watching * Become the director of a limited company * Visit the Statue of Liberty * Visit a volcano * Climb a Munro * Smoke a big blunt in the red light district in Amsterdam * Try water skiing * Ride a segway * Play poker in Vegas * Visit Disneyland Paris * Have a meal in one of the Medieval Times restaurants/places in the US. Wanted to do that ever since I saw The Cable Guy, wasn't even sure it was a real thing originally. * Go on a cruise - Naomi and I did a week cruise from Florida to the Bahamas, got home a week or two before the Covid lockdown * Visit the Kennedy Space Centre
