I have recently discovered a few new things that I never knew existed, but now, cannot wait to do. Maybe it is because I have been watching too many of those sappy Olympic commercials, but it feels like those New Year's goals have been refreshed in my mind a bit this week and their reminder has propelled me to make a few more... No, these are not goals for this year and no, I do not think that most of them will occur this year, but here are just a few new adventures that have been added to my bucket list- or my before 30 list. We'll see.
Visit Angel Falls
Did you know that Paradise Falls from the movie, "Up" is a real place? Well, it is and I just learned about it. This may be a bit behind the times, But Angel Falls is a real place in Venezuela that is where Paradise Falls was based after. Shortly after a friend told me that this was a real place, we had gotten a group together that have all vowed to visit it at some point in the future. Oh boy, I cannot wait! Going on adventures is super fun, but going on adventures with friends is even better!
Zipline in Costa Rica
A few years ago my two cousins and my aunt went ziplining in Costa Rica. Ever since hearing their stories, I have wanted to go. Some of what they said scared me, but a lot of it sounded exciting. Honestly, the idea of ziplining over a canyon 2,000+ feet in the air has not always sounded inciting. Until the hubs and I had our first ziplining excursion together on our last trip to California, I was not quite sure it would be for me. Since then, I have officially added it to the bucket list.
Complete the runDisney Coast to Coast Race
So, I just found out about this two nights ago and immediately decided that this must be done as soon as possible. The runDisney Coast to Coast Race is accomplished by running a Disney Half Marathons or longer at both Disney World and Disneyland in the same calendar year. The two races that I would like to complete for this would have to be Tinkerbell Half Marathon at Disneyland and the Food and Wine Half Marathon at EPCOT. UNfortunelty, this can no longer happen for 2014, but will for sure be on the radar for 2015.
Accomplish the Scorpion Pose
This may not be an adventure in the literal sense, but boy will accomplishing this be an adventure in every other way! For me, accomplishing this will mean being able to complete this pose while balancing on my forearms. This is quite the hefty goal considering that I am still in the process of mastering the headstand alone. I will keep you posted on the progress.
