Do you dream of walking in the shoes of an adventurer or maybe take a london taxi to stongehenge? Do you dream of touring a secluded location, scaling a dangerous mountain or trying something else new? Do you get a thrill from pushing the limits and expanding your horizons? If so, why are you settling for a ho-hum vacation? Why are you settling for a boring vacation? Why not get out and be active? The type of activity you want to endure and the boundaries you want to push in an adventure travel are not matter, they are just waiting for you to book them. These are some options for the person who is fed up with the same vacation over and over.
Far be it for me to hoist myself up into the ranks of Classical and Renaissance thinkers. Still, the following five kitchen epiphanies have always caused me to smile inwardly whenever I remember how I first stumbled upon each of them. I hope they bring you the same feelings of satisfaction and real monetary savings that they have brought me through the years.
They also keep the personal touch. At a box store, you sometimes feel you're being processed, rather than served. Here, you have real people who genuinely appreciate their customers, and you can sense that in each transaction.
That could be one of the reasons I'm single, but it will continue to make me smile, and as I watched the show, quietly giggling to myself, I couldn't help but draw up a tie-in to goal achievement, and yes, it's to do with words...
As we parted for our cars, we lamented the loss of a friend who died just the day before. Even in this time of rebirth, life goes on, and time waits for no one. I left my friends with the Pagan observation that, in Nebraska, people have recreated Stonehenge using old, used-up automobiles stacked to the exact specifications of the first monument. That is not just creative recycling and an example of rebirth of cars once thought past their useful life, it also proves there is nothing else to do in Nebraska.
Isaac, after his house collapsed, found himself alone in the water. He soon saw a child and began to swim towards it. He was elated to discover his Esther, his six-year-old. "Isaac and his baby drifted. There was more lightning. In the next flare, he saw three figures hanging tight to floating wreckage. He soon discovered his brother, Joseph, with his other daughters, Allie May and Rosemary. They soon came to rest at 28th and Avenue P, four blocks from where they once had lived"(pg. 217-219).
Westminster Abbey. Built by Edward the Confessor and consecrated in 1065, this church is one of the most significant in England. It soon became the coronation site for nearly every monarch in English history, beginning with William the Conqueror. Most Kings and Queens of England were buried here as well. Other luminaries buried in Westminster Abbey include Geoffrey Chaucer, Charles Dickens, Dr. Samuel Johnson, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Sir Isaac Newton.
Not all adventure travels have to be about risking your life. You can have a glorious adventure vacation without bungee jumping, skydiving or praying a shark won't nibble on a cage. On the same line, for the adrenaline driven, that haphazard chance is only half the fun of an adventure based vacation.
