North or South pole Summit of Everest, never mind the Base Camp. problem with that is it's hugely expensive. completely unrealistic ... Space The moon |
Yeah, get a job as a travel writer or holiday programme presenter and you're laughing.
Messiah, I'll bow to your higher knowledge of cheesey films :D What was that series recently (BBC2, I think) where they took average joes and gave them incredibly tough challenges - sail across the Atlantic, run a ultra marathon, etc..?? would love to do that. That's the only downside with doing anything adventurous, you need money to fulfill them :( I wanted to do a 5-day Ultra myself in North Africa but it costs about £4K to compete :eek: |
North American road trip - very roughly, start at Toronto, drive across to Vancouver, down the West coast, head east across to the Mississippi and drive north, do a bit of zig zagging then head north east, back into to Canada and the atlantic provinces, back through Quebec and home. All along the way taking in many of North Americas attractions/places of interest.
Apart from that: Japan Australia - esp. Sydney, Ayers Rock & Perth Egypt - just the Pyramids etc New Zealand China Hong Kong Moscow Pitcairn Island Bermuda Madagascar Gallapogos Islands Iceland Sweden Czech Peru Brazil Antartica and the Arctic in quick succession - so I can introduce a polar bear to some penguins ;) That'll do for now. :) |
Must dos:
1) Swimming (not in a cage!) with good ole carcharodon carcharias in South Africa! :cool: 2) Bear tracking in Alaska I need to visit Canada and New Zealand too! Not fussed with Europe really tbh. |

Ride across Australia on a big trailly
Watch Monte Carlo rally See Niagara falls.. |
Rocky Mountains both America and Canada, Ray Mears style for a month or 2.
That Ice hotel in James bond film Norway / Sweden. Think I may be going to South Africa and Mosambique (sp) this year |
I want to walk from destitution road to kinlochewe with a guide over 2 days... And a tour of Oz and NZ wouldnt go a miss either I guess! :D
