The Travel Bug

My friend Dani and I were watching the Travel Channel this morning, and my favorite show, Samantha Brown: Passport to Europe, was on. The episode was about Cork, Ireland. Dani has the special skill of finding four leaf clovers everywhere she goes, so she was like, "I should go to Ireland because I could find so many four leaf clovers!" "That would be the reason you would travel all the way to Ireland." So that sparked the idea to write a list of places we wanted to travel and the random reasons why. Here is my list of places that I would like to travel to and reasons why. (keep in mind most of these will happen after I'm 21)

1. Ireland - to find a four leaf clover.

2. Tuscany, Italy - to try Limoncello (via "Under the Tuscan Sun") and save a lost kitten.

3. Edinburgh, Scotland - go to a Scottish pub and visit my ancestors, The McDonald Clan

4. Australia - to venture into the unknown and see if there happens to be a Christian version of Hugh Jackman there.

5. African wilderness - ride an Elephant and go on a safari

6. Paris, France - to practice my french and get sincerely laughed at, stand on the Eiffel Tower in the morning to watch to sunrise, go to the Louvre Museum.

7. Washington DC, USA - Go to the Library of Congress, the largest Library in the world

8. Copenhagen, Denmark - go see The Little Mermaid statue (lille havfrue in Danish)

9. Guatemala - Go on a missions trip and watch a volcano erupt.

10. Uganda - meet my sponsored child, Jovita.

to be continued....
