Several weeks ago I read a blog about a bucket list and I decided that I would write a blog about the five places I have to go to before I die.
Number 5. Seattle
I have always had a desire to go to seattle because of the rock scene. Although grunge is gone seattle still has an amazing rock scene with tons of great music coming out of it. That and I am also a big jazz fan and from what I hear it has an excellent jazz. Plus I think seattle has a gorgeous cityscape.
Number 4. Las Vegas
I have never really gambled before and I am not sure how I feel about the awkward topless show thing. I still feel like I have to visit sin city once in my life.
Number 3. Tokyo
I am a big city person I feel there is so much more to explore in a big city than I any exotic or rural area no matter how good the scenery is. It doesn't get any more big city than Tokyo. It is the most populous metropolitan area with more than 35 million people. Also I would love to go to the east and get authentic asian cuisine. I love noodles and fish so I think I would be full for the whole time there. Plus the are known for their karaoke bars and once I get a few in me I have a blast sing karaoke. Plus Tokyo also has a thriving jazz scene.
Number 2. Ireland
I know I just got of a kick about liking big cities, but I still have to see the rolling green hills of ireland. Plus I am a big beer drinker and I would like to try all different stouts there. My parents went when I was little and they raved about it for years after.
Number 1. Chicago
From what I hear Chicago has it all. I want to a deep fried kielbasa before hitting wrigley field for a Cubs day game. Then I want to go straight New Chomisky Park for a White Sox game and after that I want to get the legendary deep dish pizza from the town that invented it. I want to eat a burger at one of chicago's legendary jazz bars. Also I have always wanted to go the Metro in Chicago because it has a great reputation as a alt rock venue.
Thats my list let me know about the places that you want to go.
This was a great post! I'm also a huge jazz fan. I have listen to jazz for most of my life and I can never get enough of it. I have also heard that Seattle has a fantastic jazz scene. Not to mention that Seattle has the perfect backdrop for listening to jazz. Chicago has been on places to go for a long time now. I love big cities (New York City being my favorite) and Chicago seems to be my kind of city. My best friend just asked to go to Chicago (her hometown) with her to attend Lollapalooza. If it wasn't for my money issues I would have jumped on the next plane to fly to Chicago.
ReplyDeleteMy Top 5 Places:
ReplyDelete5.Montreal: I've never been to Canada and I'd love to go to France without actually having to go to France so this would be the best place to go.
4. Australia: I have wanted to go ever since I was little and saw the crocodile hunter! I'd definitely make a stop at his Zoo too.
3. Greece: Who wouldn't want to see all of that architecture and eat the amazing food!?!
2.Nepal: I want to go to the trail head and backpack to the base of Mt. Everest. This would be an amazing experience.
1. Guadalupe Island: This island has some of the best Great White Shark Diving on this planet. I'd love to spend a couple days in the water with these creatures.
