A place on my bucket list is New Zealand. After watching the Lord of the Rings movies I would love to see that country. I just don't like the idea of a loooooonnnnnng flight to get there. Flying is not one of my favorite things to do even though I've been on many, many flights. I'd rather cruise. I know it takes longer however much more enjoyable. I dislike confined quarters and flying has become more and more confinded. One positive thing for me is I travel with a service dog so I get more space then most folks get however it still is confined in my opinion. I figure if I want to get to New Zealand it will be a cruise for me.

I agree Lidway will have to give up her electronic gagets to do the safari. I'm not sure how the younger generations will be able to do all those things because most of them don't know how to disconnect.

And Alicia too...

New Zealand and Australia are also on my list! Would love to see Ayers Rock and scuba on the Great Barrier Reef. Fell in love with kiwiland due to LotR too. Such an absolutely magical gorgeous place.
