A WISH LIST OF SORTS...
It just dawned on me that a year ago I was flying home after spending an amazing 10 days in Germany. Thanks to a wonderful friend whose generosity I will never be able to repay, I was able to visit Neuschwanstein Castle among other beautiful places.
I started thinking and compiled a short list of places I'd like to go and things I'd like to see and do. Mind you, this is a very concise list. I could never put everything in one blog entry. Thought if I put these few in my blog they could be a reminder and encouragement.
I want to...

watch a traditional Maori Haka...

see a humpback whale breach...




go
skydiving...





be dressed as an authentic Geisha...




see a sunset at Ayers Rock...




and finally...

hold an Acadamy award...

Those of you who know me may be surprised by this last one because I didn't say win. Of course I would LOVE to win an Oscar and perhaps I will, but it may be slightly presumptuous to set that as a goal. And is that the true measure of a person's talent or achievement? I don't think so. No, I just want to see how heavy one really is.
Will my life mean less if I don't do any of these things? Not at all. But it sure will be a lot more fun! I'd love to hear what some of your wishes are. Perhaps we'll meet on the road, have a beer, and share some great stories.
