Today I found myself thinking about places I would like to visit. There aren’t many places that I have the urge to see, but the more I think about it, the more I’d like to visit Egypt. A trip down the Nile, the Pyramids, Alexandria ….
Then by coincidence I was looking at the Smithsonian Magazine website and this article: The Smithsonian Life List.
From the list I’ve only been to the Louvre and seen the Aurora Borealis. I saw the inside of a train station in Venice, but somehow I don’t think that counts!
I won’t be off to Egypt any time soon. It’s apparently a bit of a chore to get there without flying, and I won’t fly any more.

If anything, that reminds me of how many things there are still to do. Good, in a way. Shame they aren’t easier to get to.
