My ultimate bucket list

When Sarah got back from her latest round the world adventure that I'd had the pleasure of putting together, I asked her if there were still many places left on her 'bucket list' or if she'd pretty much exhausted them. Despite responding that perhaps I was just as bad, she put together a little list of things that she still hadn't managed to complete but were on the horizon for the next few years, and could I help with.

Grand Canyon 'A helicopter tour of that marvellous red rock in Arizona. How cool would that be? I'm scared of heights and flying but I'd be wowed by the beauty, so it would also be a real challenge.'

Australia 'Desperate to visit Oz. We tend to go to New Zealand to see family and don't stop off at Australia because after travelling for 28 hours those extra few hours really are the straw that breaks the camel's back. I'd love to go to the Whitsunday Islands and see the Great Barrier Reef. And everyone who's been to Sydney tell me they love it so much they want to move there because it's so magical!'

A vineyard tour in France 'My favourite red wine is Chateauneuf-du-Pape so I'd start with a visit to the Rhone region where those grapes are grown. That would be combining two of my favourite things - fine wine and France ... what's not to love?'

West coast of America road trip 'In a Winnebago with the future family; we'd start in LA and drive all the way down to San Francisco, stopping at Santa Barbara, Carmel, Monterey - I'd love to do that route, and perhaps it's one that can wait until we have kids.'

Do a skydive 'I know that's a bit of a strange one, but again, as I'm terrified of heights, I'd relish the test. I want to beat my fear of flying and the thought of jumping out of a tiny metal box is absolutely mad, but I'd like to muster up the courage to do it.'
