GUT2407 Posted August 11, 2015 #4 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Yep. After our first cruise a circumnavigation of Australia was the first thing to go on it. In 71 days it can be crossed off and we can start work on the others that have been added since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCruisers Posted August 11, 2015 #6 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Happily, we have done all that were important to us to see so now we just cruise to the places that are FUN for us. :D LuLu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseMan1970 Posted August 11, 2015 #7 Share Posted August 11, 2015 To be off the coast of Monaco day of two before the Monaco Grand Prix. Watch the race and continue cruising to wherever is next on the itinerary. I find very few cruise lines that have a itinerary the same week as the race.

perditax Posted August 11, 2015 #8 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I'm a newbie so my needs are still modest --Transatlantic --PC --British Isles And I was just toying with the idea of a Scandinavian cruise where I could perhaps stop in Oslo and visit my company's home offices.

Cruisin' Chick Posted August 12, 2015 #9 Share Posted August 12, 2015 It's funny but just today I told my hubby I call it my "dream list" as I feel "bucket list" is too morbid. He agreed with m. On our dream list: 1. South American cruise with side trip to Iguazu Falls 2. Australian/NZ cruise 3. Baltic cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scrapnana Posted August 12, 2015 #10 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Two of my bucket list cruises are booked - Canada/New England and Alaska. Still to be planned.... Bermuda Norwegian fjords TA by way of Iceland and Greenland South America and Antarctica And I want to do another World Voyage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted August 12, 2015 #11 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I've been blessed, as I've cruised to just about everywhere I care to go. I have visited all seven continents, and sailed all seven seas. Now, it's just a matter of picking up a new port once in a while when repeating an area of the world. And revisiting favorite areas, but seeing something else while in port.

carinainacar Posted August 12, 2015 #14 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I really want to do a cruise to Antartica but none of my family members are up for it. :( Guess I'll have to wait a while before I can cross that off my bucket list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcoy Posted August 12, 2015 #15 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I went on a 94 day World Cruise last year. That emptied my bucket and I had to sell it to help pay for the cruise. :D Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted August 12, 2015 #16 Share Posted August 12, 2015 We used to have a bucket list. But after DH had a heart attack and 2 unsuccessful heart procedures, our travels changed. We were fortunate to have been to many places on that list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky-elpaso Posted August 12, 2015 #17 Share Posted August 12, 2015 We've managed to cross a few off of our list: Alaska Australia / NZ - circumnavigation Panama Canal - Ft. Lauderdale to San Diego Great Britain / Northern TA via Norway and Iceland ending in NY Upcoming next year: Mediterranean / Southern TA ending in Ft. Lauderdale. This one had to include a port with a tour to Pompeii. After that would like to go to: Northern East coast for fall color - we don't get that here in El Paso Maybe another Alaska cruise Hawaii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted August 12, 2015 #18 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Most of the places on bucket lists I had already visited before a bucket list became popular. I wanted to visit Hong Kong, Singapore, and Bali, and I did - but not on cruises. I wanted to ride the Orient Express, the trans Siberian Railroad, and walk the pilgrim route to Santiago de Compostela. Sadly, I realize I will never be able to do the latter, the Orient Express isn't what it used to be, and the Trans Siberian was just a dream, much too arduous. Curiously, I am much more widely traveled than my sister, but she is the one that has traveled on a Russian railroad, Moscow to Saratov (overnight). There are many places I would like to show my sister, but they would be land trips - India, Nepal, Morocco, Mongolia. When I first got really serious about world travel, I had three criteria for places to visit: They don't have the same alphabet, don't use the same kind of toilet, and you can't drink the water. That's why Australia and New Zealand have never been on my list. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knobhdy Posted August 12, 2015 #21 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I wanted to ride the Orient Express, the trans Siberian Railroad, and walk the pilgrim route to Santiago de Compostela. I have wanted to do the pilgrimage from Paris to Compostela since I was in High School. I would like to do it on horseback, but tours are much more likely to feature bikes. I do have a few cruises on my must do list: circumnavigate South America (especially if I can do a stop over at Antarctica) World Cruise - Or really any long haul cruise. I love the idea of living on a boat for several months at a time, visiting new places and seeing new things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tetleytea Posted August 12, 2015 #22 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I like Canada/NE as a land tour, and I would do it again and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carinainacar Posted August 12, 2015 #23 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Go without them. You'll never regret it. I definitely would but unfortunately I'm not old enough to cruise on my own yet. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
