SAFC73_2

I would like to;

1. Walk the Great wall of China,

2. Hike along the Appalahchian Trail ( inspried by Bill Bryson)

3. Drive across America

4. Travel on the Fort William to Mallaig train line,

Two most improbable;

1. Score a goal at the Stadium of Light but being a girl and having arthritic feet not likely:mad:

2 Be an astronaut

Most achieveable;

1 Giving up my business and then working with disabled children as a teaching assistant. My goal for 2008

A few years ago I wrote down a list of 100 things I wanted to do before I popped it. I am still working through that list but some highlights so far include:
* Been bungy jumping in NZ (took a lot of guts!)
* Learnt how to surf (badly)
* Got a decent degree to become a teacher
* Been on a Lions Rugby tour (great fun)

However, I still want to live abroad, own a place to live in, fly first class somewhere far away & travel around Australia..So not much then!!

SAFC73-Do the Fort William-Mallaig train journey as its great! Used to go there as a kids and I still remember the amazing scenary...

Great thread by the way!!

Oh !!!!! just lost all my typing. To sum up my masterpiece, you can learn to sail at evening class at local college (day skipper then night skipper) then advertise as private crew, doesnt need to be a dream.

Lots of charities have free trips to wonderful places povided you raise certain amount for charity, worth a try?

I got into debt "pursuing my dreams" and have a job with a good perks so I have done a fair few on my list. However tomorrow I fly to South Africa, somewhere I have wanted to go for years, but I have saved up for it and I know I have worked damn hard for every penny so it is going to be even more special.
