What is the best time you have ever had in your life?

My trip to the UK, and Paris. I spent a week in the UK, and a trip to Paris. I remember standing in front of the Big Ben Tower, It was such an iconic building. I never thought I'd actually get to see it. It was the same with the Eiffel Tower. It doesn't look like its pics, it's brown, and surprisingly beautiful. You see pics of these, so often, it got to me in seeing them ,live.
 
When I got my driver's license at 16 & bought a car a few weeks later.
I remember thinking: "Wow....I can just go anywhere I want, whenever I want, & come back whenever I want."

I'll say hello to Big Ben for you next time I'm there.. ditto the Eiffel tower as well, but I'm less likely to be there as soon as I will be at the houses of Parliament... :D
 
Catching crawdads and gigging frogs with my older brother
Playing baseball (and later, coaching Little League)
Working the cows with Gramps
My first marriage was blissful for a while
This marriage still is
Camping with my kids
Walking to the "little store" behind my son, Grant, when he was 3....so frikkin cute.
Scuba diving
The day Paxton arrived, so tiny and red in the face from crying. He needed me.
Nature walks with Paxton

I'm not even done yet, but the list is really long. Makes me realize life has been great!
 
Crayfish and Abalone fishing were the best times for me. On the West Coast of Tasmania
So many years ago now. 40 years at least.
Building more great memories these days as I venture into the forest, being at one with nature.
I had some good times fishing also Bretrick
I caught a beautiful Muskie in Canada , and a catfish on the river Ebro in Spain.....
Really miss my fishing days , since hubbys illness.....
 
My trips to California. Wonderful times and I felt so peaceful and joyful especially whilst in San Diego. I'm sure there are more but if I'm to have a second life, I want to live in San Diego.

Walking to school was NOT one of my favorite times. No wonder I weighed 100 pounds while in high school. All that walking! 🤣😂😅😆

Like others here, I have a lot of good memories from a lot of things -

1) Traveling is number one on my list - England, France, Germany, Austria, Greece, Italy, Netherlands, Australia. I love to travel and the thrill of going to a new country, learning a new culture, eating the foods there, and visiting the sites is unsurpassed.

2) Playing in orchestras - the thrill of playing in a concert is another wonderful feeling; I lose myself and gain so much richness in the process. We practice our individual pieces alone, playing our fragmented parts like a piece of the puzzle, but when we get together as an orchestra, as a team, the combined sound is magnificent.

3) Being married had a thrill of its own, because I learned to love and be loved. The other wonderful part about being married was raising my son, and going to places with my family. It was a very wonderful time in my life.

I have lots more, but this is sufficient for now. Makes me feel good remembering them. :D
 
I Have many wonderful memories. Growing up in the city with a dozen friends living on the same street. In grade school going on a school picnic in Willow grove and going on all the rides. Marrying my Husband and Going to Miami Florida for our Honeymoon. The day my husband got out of the Navy. Seeing my children and grandchildren for the first time.I could go on and on. I was blessed with the 2 best parents and then Wonderful in-laws.

The best times of my life were riding my trusty horse. One particular flying change while cantering down a winding trail through the woods beside a creek springs to mind. Tho sometimes not so great, now that I'm remembering the time the blue heron rose up out of the creek and the canter changed to gallop!

One more reason that forums such as this one are extremely beneficial.
Asking questions of members brings back memories that we very rarely think of.
Good memories engender warm feelings and humans revel in such reminiscences

What musical instrument to you play, @palides2021 ?

I have a cousin in Corpus Christi who is involved with their orchestra, etc. She plays the flute; beautifully I might add. I miss seeing her in concerts. You sound just like her as she LOVES to travel to Europe.
