Travel Bucket List

Yesterday we were slow at work, so I made our "Travel Bucket List".

Chad had some input on these...

Anything in Italic was already done by one of us but we want to experience it together!

Adventure is out there!! (Think Ellie from Up!)

  • eat gelato in Italy
  • drink wine in France
  • kiss on top of the Eiffel Tower
  • take an espresso shot in an Italian coffeehouse
  • do the ridiculously tacky "holding up the Leaning Tower of Pisa" photo
  • go up in the London Eye
  • go to a black sand beach in Greece
  • attend a real Hawaiian luau (at the PCC)
  • tour a coffee plantation
  • have dinner on the beach
  • take photos from the top of the Empire State Building (I've been there, just not on the deck because of the weather!)
  • see a show on Broadway in NYC
  • get coffee at Dean and Deluca
  • take a glass bottom boat ride to see the fish and reefs
  • swim with dolphins
  • go to Alcatraz 
  • eat sourdough bread on Fisherman's Wharf (Amy)
  • throw a fish in Pike Place Market
  • visit the original Starbucks
  • have a picnic in Central Park
  • try to get a Buckingham Palace guard to smile
  • go horseback riding on the beach 
  • drink blue curacao in Curacao
  • ride a zip line (Chad)
  • 4x4 safari ride through the Caribbean
  • take a ride in a submarine (Chad)
  • visit the San Diego Zoo
  • snorkel the reefs in Grand Cayman (we were supposed to do this on the honeymoon but our port day got canceled because of weather)
  • go to the Atlantis Resort (from the Mary Kate and Ashley movie!)
  • take on a ropes challenge course
  • wine tasting in a foreign country
  • eat at the ultra-plush steakhouse on the cruise ship
  • take a ride in one of the trolleys in San Francisco
  • visit the Anne of Green Gables mock-up home
  • take a backstage tour of a cruise ship
  • see the volcanoes in Hawaii
  • do the skydive adventure on the new Royal Caribbean ship (this is the closest I will ever get to skydiving)
  • do a grape stomp in Italy
  • take a ride in a cable car
  • "Ride the Ducks" land cruiser and water boat (Chad)
  • eat a beignet in New Orleans
  • bathe in a hot spring mineral bath thing (whatever, you know what I mean)
  • take a kayak ride
  • set foot in a country I never imagined visiting
Yes, we have BIG travel dreams. 

And we will only achieve these once we pay down our student loan debt.

Chad is better with dreaming about that goal before any of the adventures that come after.

I dream better about the adventures and tend to spend less time thinking about our student loan debt.

We're a good balance, right?
