Finally…Savannah!

Friday, April 4th, 2008

Good lord, it took me from when I got home this evening until just now to get all the photos organized, uploaded and captioned! I hope you enjoy them. I found that due to early onset Alzheimer’s, I have forgotten what some of the pictures were…Sorry.

Thirteen Things that tiggerprr Would Like to See/Do Before She Dies

1. The Louvre Museum and Eiffel Tower in Paris, France. We’d have to go to see Jim Morrison’s gravesite while there for Ashlyn. She’s such a late flower child. Actually, I just want to go see the whole city! And I hope that if we do ever get to go there, that our friend Xav will be able to be with us so we can see the city through a native’s eyes. That would be really nice. :)
2. I’d like to go back to Tokyo, Japan. I spent a lot of my childhood there, met my husband there when we were rotten teenagers and half of my family lives there since my Mom is Japanese. I’m due for some authentic Japanese food, it’s been 25 years since I lived there.
3. Stonehenge.
4. I want to kiss the Blarney Stone in Ireland, while visiting the rest of the country too!
5. I’d like to see a “real” castle. It shouldn’t be too hard to accomplish that one while in Europe. Eddie Izzard says everyone has one have one over there. I’ll even bring a flag.
6. Visit a Tibetian Monastery. This is one of the Hubby’s Do Before I Die desires, but I’m putting it on here to prove that I really do listen to him. And, I think it would be really cool to do too.
7. The Great Wall of China. It looks so cool in pictures, I’d like to see and stand on the real thing.
8. Washington, D.C. - Notable places to see: The Lincoln Memorial, The Smithsonian Institute, The Library of Congress, The White House. All of that historical/patriotic stuff!
9. Hawaii. The Hubby and I agree that this is one place we definitely want to visit. Visiting An Island Life and looking at all of her gorgeous pictures reminds me of that all the time!
10. Mt. Rushmore. We really should have done this when we lived in Iowa. But we didn’t, so it’s still on my “list”. Gotta see those giant heads!
11. I would like to hug a big giant tree.
12. Would you believe, that I’ve been to Las Vegas 4 times and have never visited The Grand Canyon!?
13. St. Lucia. It’s so green and looks so beautiful. I want to go there and just veg out.

These are just 13 of the things I’d like to see or do. I could think of many others I’m sure. I wonder how many I’ll get to before I’m too old to do it? We’ll see!

The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged!
