I'm bored, and yearning for my trip in June, and nothing planned after that. So, I thought it would be fun to put together a list of places where some time in the future I would like to:
- take a cruise - visit - re-visit
Cruise destinations, in order of reality, rather than preference (i.e., how likely am I to do this):
- Alaska - Norway - Panama Canal - Transatlantic - Asia - South America - Galapagos (I know, these last two are pretty vague.)
Places that I want to visit, in random order:
- Egypt - Japan - Indonesia - Brazil - Portugal (going there in June!) - South Africa - Ireland - Mexico - Costa Rica - New Zealand - Australia - Easter Island - ... oh, this list is too long....
Places I want more of, in order of likelihood, and my desire to go there:
- Greece - Turkey - England - Scotland - FP (duh!) - Bahamas - Italy - Morocco (now this list is getting too long too!)

Wendy, so far, our favorite cruise has been the Panama Canal, but then again, we haven't done WAVE yet! and we're repeating Alaska - which is magnificent. High on our list is Australia and NZ.

We would love to visit Israel but I am not sure that we'll ever really feel safe enough going there.
Greece is the next on the list.

Other than what I have already booked to take me to places I have not visited (ROAR [Africa]POP[Antarctica]) and some I am revisiting because of the people on the cruises and some new ports (FJORDS and PUBS), I have to say more of Asia and then South America. Have lots I want to see that require land trips (like back to Switzerland, for one)

I keep a planning spreadsheet - we want to get to some destinations sooner while we're still somewhat young and active and some because they are changing. Our go "sooner than later" list includes:
Africa - booked Vietnam - booked Antarctica - booked Bhutan Tibet India Morocco Egypt Burma

Oh yeh, I forgot Hong Kong--always wanted to go there. And Botswana, I have a new yearning for that, having read almost all of Alexander McCaul Smith's series.
Oh, and more places in Eastern Europe!
