My Current Bucket List

3/19/2020

0 Comments

 
With all these new regulations, a lot of vacations have been cancelled or postponed. For me, this meant my Disney cruise would be cancelled. It was sad moment when I received the email and I am sure a lot of you felt the same way as flights, hotels, and theme parks started shutting down. Even though we cannot travel at this moment, it cannot stop us from dreaming right?! Here are the top 5 places I want to travel to next!
​
1. Australia
This has been on the list ever since I did a project in 8th grade. I am a huge architecture buff and did a report on the Sydney Opera House which is a must see. While I’m there, I will have to see some wildlife, drive the Great Ocean Rd, and visit Blue Mountain National Park. The most important thing to me will be the Great Barrier Reef. Being scuba certified, I cannot wait to take a dive or two into this amazing reef filled the most beautiful sea life in the world. This currently tops my list and hopefully will be checked off soon

2. Greece (Especially the islands)
Who doesn’t want to go relax among the White and Blue colored buildings on the Greek Islands? Whether it is Santorini, Mykonos, or one of the less popular islands, each moment will be breathtaking. The small cobblestone streets, family owned cafes, and beautiful views from the bay are waiting. My dream is to get a room with one of those private infinity pools overlooking the water! While I am there, we will make sure to visit the history in both Athens and Olympia on the mainland.

3. Tahiti
​After doing a few all inclusives, I have started to dream about an over water bungalow! I want to relax in the sun with an unbeatable view. Who doesn’t want to be ON the water with a glass floor in the bungalow? Being able to jump right into the water off my deck would be so much fun. Tahiti is one of the best locations with several different options. Its not going to come cheap, but it will be something you will remember forever!

4. Family Disney Trip
Now for some of you, this will NEVER be on your list. However, most of you know my complete love for Disney and the parks. I think some of it is sentimental, but I really do think it is one of the happiest places on earth. My extended family including my 2 brothers and parents have always talked about taking everyone to Disney together.  This would be really fun to relive with my parents, brothers, spouses, and all the kids. Seeing Disney though a child’s eyes adds to the magic in my opinion. The real question is if I can convince everyone to upgrade to a deluxe resort? Maybe a Disney cruise would be better than the park? Ill have to add that to the list!

5. Grand Canyon
So I have been to a LOT of different US destinations. Grand Canyon is one of the few left on the list. My wife has already been there which is why this has slid down the US destination list, but it is still in my top five. I have been told pictures never do this place justice. I also want to take a plane ride through the canyon or ride a donkey all the way down. I would pair this trip with a Zion National Park trip and Bryce Canyon to make it a memorable vacation for sure!
