WHERE TO GO?

So much to do. So many cool places worth visiting. Of course it all depends on your passions.

I want to go to San Francisco. There’s so many places of interest - like the Golden Gate Bridge, the Haight Ashbury intersection where the hippies hung, Lombard (the crooked street) and of course Alcatraz! Apparently, you can be locked in a cell as part of the visit!
I want to see the site of the Buddy Holly plane crash in Clear Lake, Iowa. I don’t think there’s much else around there. Not sure what else I would do - see the monument and then...hmmm. But I’m drawn to it.

I want to see Mount Rushmore. I’ve seen lots of pictures. Maybe it isn’t as majestic in person as it’s made out to be. Only one way to know for sure.

I want to see Dealey Plaza in Dallas where President Kennedy was shot. And a visit to a couple of radio stations!

I want to see the intersection of 41 and 46 in California where James Dean was killed. Having seen his movies, been to the museum, and the gravesite, this would complete the trek of James Dean for me.

Overseas, I want to visit Stonehenge, in Wiltshire. I don’t know much about it, really. Seen a couple of A&E documentaries but being on site would be very interesting.

I want to journey by boat to the tip of Elephant Island on the tip of Antarctica. Hopefully there’s something to do once I get there, coz it’s a long ride. It better be worthwhile!

And, I really, REALLY, want to rent a road bike and ride a couple of laps along the Champs Elysees in Paris, then around the Eiffel Tower and up and down the Seine River, and maybe a solid ride from Evry to Paris.

Lots to do! Hopefully a couple of these will come to pass! Maybe ONE in 2014?!
