Here is our bucket list before returning to Canada with some already on the calendar, others trying to squeeze in!
Spend more time exploring the battlefields in Belgium and Northeastern France.
Do a weekend motorcycle trip in France, or two, staying in tiny towns and surviving on baguettes and wine.
Visit le Mont Saint-Michel.
Go sailing one more time with my co-sailors from Canada and Britain – first women-only flotilla trip for me!
Do a Fjällraven Classic hike – the one in Sweden is after our return date, so opted for the one in Denmark at the end of June. The outdoor company also offers two others in North America and China!
Go to two cities and countries I’ve never been – thinking of Vilnius as we have new friends there and Prague!
Hike Ben Nevis – this will be a scheduling challenge but still holding out hope. Made it to the base trails but another day needed (preferably without fog)…
