Who was the famous person?

And I bet watching a lightening storm at sea would be awesome and scary!

What a fascinating list!

Hi there-fabulous list, some great ideas!

Hi Money Funk - Now you've asked me and now I can't actually think of who I've met. I used to "hang out" at the band entrances during the crazy '80's with my best girlfriend and we got autographs from the Thompson Twins, The Spoons, Frankie Goes to Hollywood...does that count as "met?" :P

Hi SharonRose - thanks! It was fun!

I stole it from Canadian Saver too. :)

Thanks for commenting & adding me to your blogroll. If you don't mind, I'm adding yours to mine too. :)

I could never remember DisneyLAND and DisneyWORLD either til a teacher told us that Disneyland is in California (Land comes before World in alphabetical order and California comes before Florida...). It's the only way I can ever remember.

Great list, you've been to some neat places!

Hi CS - Clever! I'm going to have to try and remember that. That's a good way to do it.
