Have Fun & Live 2020, Travel Bucket List

A new decade! Welcome 2020!

Time can get away from us rather quickly. Don’t put off doing things or experiences that you know you want to have. If you put it off, it is likely to never happen. Just get out there & do it!

I originally posted a “Not Going to Kick the Bucket; Have Fun & Live List” in 2015. I posted an update showing what I did manage to accomplish from that list, that year.

I have decided to make a new list for a new year & decade. I am looking at this list as a “have fun & live, not going to kick the bucket list”.

This list has things from the 2015 list. I also added some things back to the list because I want to do them again. 🙂 There are also more things that I did not have listed in 2015. The list includes travel to certain places or doing things while traveling.

Yes, I have experienced many of these things before, but there are many new to me things, also.
