I heard the term 'Bucket List' probably ten years ago, and while I find the idea appealing, I haven't had anything to stick on my own bucket list until today. (I do have a sex bucket list, or fucket list, but that's a different conversation).

But listening to a PodCast today, I simply must have bacon and eggs at The. Grove Cafe in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

What's on your bucket list? Are they even a thing?

Edit: The .Grove is an edit?

I have done lots of things that I had in my bucket list. Still there are a few that I would like to do.

Spend New Years Eve in Sidney
Do the Annapurna trek
Go to a Champions League Final (Liverpool playing of course)
Go to the arctic circle on midsummer.
Visit Antartica or at least the Falklands
Rent a motorcycle (it could be a bike or an electric bike, whatever is cheaper) for a month and ride it all around Italy, just for the food.
Walk the Camino de Santiago.
Go to New Zealand (including things related to LOTR)

Does Sidney know about your plan?

I'd love to go to one of the poles, vast expanses of white, always thought it might be like being on another planet.

Also fancy the trans-Siberian express with a good book, ending up somewhere mad like Mongolia.

Got a thing for waterfalls as well. Seen Niagara and Victoria. Need to see Angel and Iguazu.

Oh, and Yellowstone NP, I'll make it there one day.

Sorry, i haven't got any like eating such n such in some restaurant or staying at a particular famous hotel. Stuff like that has never really grabbed me. But natural wonders or interesting wildlife...could easily fill a bucket or two with places like that. My best ever holiday was hiking and camping in the Okavango Delta. Don't generally have the urge to go back to places, but I'd make an exception for there. That's one that i wouldn't tick off the list no matter how many times i went back.

Great list though. I think most of mine mind revolve around nature actually. I've been lucky enough to do one safari, would love to do another one at some point in my life.

The only thing I have left to do, is to see an active volcano. As me and the better half are off to Sicily next year, I will be able to cross it off my list.

Fucking big quim Dave. It's like having a load of pans in the hob while you're making a scran. Keep stirring them all, some fast and some slow, and remember to have a quick taste every now and again.
