What a great story! Loved your dad telling you it was an altitude bomb. Also love the photos of the Eastern Airlines planes. I had forgotten all about that airline.
In a nutshell: visit every continent and fill my passport (though I don't travel often enough to do this in 10 years).
More specifically: Hike to Machu Picchu Trans Siberian Railway (not necessarily the fancy version, with the locals would be fine) Cuba Family history trip in Italy African safari New Zealand Rent an RV and motor around the National parks around Zion/Arches/Grand Canyon Camping at the Boundary Waters in MN
"Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies-"God damn it, you've got to be kind.”
--Visit all 6 inhabited continents. I'm halfway there --Go below the equator --take my children to China --go to all 50 states. I have 12 left. --go to Machu Picchu --go to Lake Baikal --take a cruise --hike in the Grand Canyon
#1 The Louvre in Paris...I have been to Paris for work three times. Each time I had a free day to myself and each time, my free day was when the Louvre was closed.
In no particular order.... Scottish Highlands Australia and New Zealand Japan Alaskan cruise Mount Rushmore South Dakota Napa Valley Wine Country Sedona, Arizona
I have visited 38 states so I need to visit the last 12--Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Idaho, Iowa, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin

The top five are:
-Visit the village my great-grandmother came from in Poland -Turkey (Istanbul, Cappadocia, Ephesus, Gallipoli-the whole nine yards...) -Galapagos Islands -Stay in an overwater bungalow in French Polynesia -An African safari (I'll take any country just about...)
I just want to go a anywhere and everywhere I haven't already been yet.
Some places are more specific than others: All 7 continents (only have 2 so not even close yet) Machu Picchu Amazon Safari somewhere in Africa Japan SE Asia Eastern Europe Alaska Tahiti Montana Niagra falls Maine Boston Ireland Scandinavia Galápagos Islands Egypt Jordan Israel
And Cuba and Russia, but we have to wait for sure for DH to retire before we go to either of those places (or china or a whole list of other countries he's not allowed to go to right now)
