Top 50...

We get lots of re-runs of tv shows and on BBC as well as NBC's Today show they talked about Live Life: 50 Things to Do or See before you die.

Note: Nick suggested I make comments about where I am at with some of these, so I have updated to do such a thing.

It got me thinking and here are mine in no particular order:-
1. Swim with dolphins
2. Swim with a whale shark at Nigaloo Reef
3. See the Egyptian pyrimids

5. Go on an African safari
6. Volunteer 2 weeks at the Tiger Temple in Thailand
