I am creating a bucket list and I am in need of inspiration.
So far I have : -visit all 7 continents
-eat sushi in Japan
What's on yours ?
 
To help you brainstorm think about common place things that you have never done. For instance I have never eaten at a White Castle. I made a little book with things I wanted to do. I included manicure and pedicure, which I had never had. Along with the "big" things it is neat to have small things too. For the manicure and pedicure I had the person at the salon sign my book.


These are not all mine, just doing some brainstorming for you....

Forgive someone.
Tithe for ...... (a week, a month, a year)
Take a class (fun, serious...._)
Watch the top 25 movies of all time
Begin a journal
Swim naked
Spend 15 minutes every day for a month on something fun
Finish (fill in the blank) project
Learn how to (fill in the blank)
Host a fancy dress up dinner party
Adopt a family for Christmas (gifts, food....)
Become a mentor to a child or family in need
Get that stupid colonoscopy
Try a new hairstyle

Some are serious. Some trivial. Some fun. Some serious.
 
I've been thinking about mine lately. Checking some things off it....went parasailing, ran a half marathon, went rock climbing. Some things that are still on it...

have dinner at the White House
Do the Disney World Tour! All theme parks...
I want to be in New York for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade
take a safari
learn to ski
write a lasting memory book for my son


I know there is more, but it's all I got right now!
 
I don't really have a bucket list. When ever we plan a vacation or even just a weekend away I try to find something I have never done before. That cant always be done but it is fun when we do find something new.
There are many places I want to visit but the one I would say that is my bucket list item is touring Italy.
 

Here are a few of mine:

Visit Ireland
Zipline thru some sort of Rainforest.
see Sea Turtles hatch on the beach
Go whale watching
Visit Seattle

Mine is mostly traveling as well...

Includes:

Visit all 50 states (especially hawaii) - Have visited 16, so have 34 to go.

Visit Ireland
Visit Australia


Some things that I've been very lucky to be able to cross my list off already are:

Visit Alaska
See humpback whales & Orcas
Watch baby sea turtles hatch and enter the ocean
Take dd's to Disney


When I retire (in approximately 20-25 years), I've already told dh I am planning on selling our house, buying a nice RV and traveling the country (and he's definitely in agreement with that as well).
 
So to show how nerdy I am here goes

1) fly on all types of commercial Aircraft (A380 and 787 remain)
2) fly in a jet fighter
3) Travel to all 50 states (only 7 left)
4) Travel to Moscow
5) water ski in lake pepin
6) Set foot on all 7 continents (realistically let's aim for 6, 1 left)
7) Visit Normandy
8) Go to SXSW
9) Eat a hot dog on Cony Island


and it is important to share what has been crossed off too!
1) See Auschwitz
2) Walk across the GG bridge
3) Eat a philly steak sandwich in Philly
4) have starbucks in Seattle
5) Smoke a Cuban Cigar
7) Walk the Catacomes of Paris
 
I want to visit all 50 states. I think I have 5 left!

I want a granddaughter! Hopefully one of my sons will fulfill that wish!
 
Wow ! There are a lot of great ideas out there. I'M adding the transsiberian railroad to my list (london to Moscow to Beijing) , visit all 50 states , visit all the Disney theme parks.
 
Go to an Olympic Games
Learn to play the piano
Take an around the world cruise
Go on an African Photo Safari
Babysit a grandchild
Volunteer in a third world country
Go into space (ok not likely to happen but I can dream)
 
hmm this is new to me so lets see......
1. write a childrens book
2. swim with the dolphins
3.visit Hawaii
4. see aerosmith in concert
5. camp on the beach
I'm sure I'll think of more but thats a pretty good start! :cool1:
