well, my "100 things to do before I die" list looks a bit more
prosaic now .....
here are some of the things I've completed on my list ....
. pick up diving (10 years old hobby now)
. backpack and travel on my own (quite a few times now)
. stay on a house boat
. witness sunrise and sunset at sea (many times over)
. witness a sunrise on a mountain
. camp and trek in the tropical rainforest (no, not NS)
. camp and trek in a temperate wilderness
. ran a marathon (don't laugh, it was not in recent times !)
. graduate from university
. pick up fly-fishing (spent too much money on that already
!)
some of the things I've yet to do on my list
. Visit New York (new york new york !)
. Visit Tokyo
. make my pile (not yet, but of course, that's a never ending
struggle)
. teach (not as a career, but I want to inspire young minds,
even if it's just for a while)
. hunt down dearling and marry her (should strike this one off I
guess)
. be a father
. sip champagne on my own yatch
. cruise the length of the great barrier reef.
. sail across the pacific (after I die, scatter my ashes into
the pacific)
Maybe it's time to add something more meaningful into the list
....
