'The List'

Hi,

So Steve introduced me to this blog today so I thought I should start to get posting asap.
As the day we fly off travelling gets closer and closer Steve and I have been chatting about the finer details of what we might do when we get away. I came up with an idea of maybe putting together a list of say....20 things we could aim to do whilst travelling, which could be described as 'life experiences'. Things you would normally not get to do. To me this seems like a cool idea....just a way of making sure we do the things we really want to and dont leave anything out!!

So the list so far (and any ideas are definately welcome) includes:


1) Black Water Rafting - basically a step up from white water rafting, which involves you shooting down the water systems found in caves in some sort of rubber dinghy. All very safe stuff (hmmm!). NB: Sta travel insurance do include cover for this activity (pretty brave!), but you do have to apply for the top level of cover. Probably worth it tho knowing me and Steve.





2) Travelling to 'spider town' - an area known as Sukon in Cambodia, 75 miles from the capital. This town has a large population of turantulas, so they are regularly included in mealtimes (and are often bred to feed to curious travellers. Apparently the spiders taste great deep fried.....a little like chicken. Probably need to check vaccinations for this area of Cambodia as I believe its a little off the beaten track, the more rural the area, generally the more risk of disease.


Other than that we havent really had time to discuss any other additions to the list, but hopefully we will think of/add more soon.

So....watch this space!
