I’ve decided to alter THE List slightly (again). I updated it a few months ago, taking out items that I really didn’t care to complete with items that I would rather do. The original #97 was “Live Out of a Van”-I updated it to “Attend Mardi Gras.” Well, that was a little self-serving as I had already been to Mardi Gras. Then I read Gina’s blog post about her attending the Macy’s Day Parade and it inspired me to flesh out #97 to “Participate in… (Major Annual World Events).” To complete this ONE thing, I will have to attend several events. So far I’ve got six that I’d like to attend (although the list seems awfully American-Centric).
- Mardi Gras
- Oktoberfest
- Kentucky Derby
- Running of the Bulls
- New Year’s Eve in Times Square
- Summer Solistice at Stonehenge
What other events should I make sure I attend before I die?

Good points, I think I will definitely subscribe! I’ll go and read some more! What do you see the future of this being?
Thanks for finding my blog and I hope you enjoy what you read!
Oooh, good addition! I hear also that if you want to celebrate the new year one of the best places to be is Hawaii, they apparently have a big to do!
Yeah, I just had a friend that went to Hawaii for the New Year. I’ll have to post my story of doing NYE in Times Square-one of my more exciting stories actually. I’ve gotten suggestions (via Facebook) of Carnivale, La Tomatina, SuperBowl, Gaspirilla, World Cup, and Kumbh Mela (I had to look that last one up)
