What ONE thing would you like to see or do before you die?

I would love to visit England and Ireland. My grandfather's ancestors came from England while my grandmother's came from Ireland.
 

There is a little old log cabin in the woods in Ohio that used to belong to my grandparents. They would take us cousins to spend weekends there when we were kids. I'd like to go inside and look around once again, just to see some details and how it might be different from what I thought as a kid. Haven't been back for over 50 years.

It belongs to a second cousin now, and although it sounds simple enough to arrange, I don't think it ever could be. (...relatives..:rolleyes:....)
 
I would love to see the American Southwest again. Zion National Park is the most magnificent scenery, Bryce Canyon is beautiful and I loved the history all around , seeing the Anasazi ruins, the Navajo reservation, and the Pueblos.
 
I would like to travel all over and spend a few days here and there in the homes of folks with a different cultures and beliefs to myself, especially at their religious holiday times, eg with the Jewish at Passover or Hannukah etc.

Cultures and differences especially the foods have always fascinated me and I think this would be a wonderful way to learn more.

Each year I get a list of special holidays around the world and regularly pick one at the appropriate time, cook the food etc for that holiday and I find it very interesting especially the history regarding the day. I always cook a goose and have a blackberry dessert on Michaelmas Sunday which is very English but little known now. It is amazing what the diverse foods are. Ho, now there is a topic all by itself. I will do that.

I'd like to see politicians tell the truth. Here in the UK, we've had a referendum (the World knows what for), and 'pollies' on both sides lied through their teeth during the campaign. I was staggered by the bare-faced lies and felt ashamed to be British.
 
timoc, I would like to see everyone tell the truth, I do but I find generally that everyone I am around tell lies with no problem at all, I really think they think it doesn't;'t matter it has got increasingly worse over the last 15 years ot so
 
I have seen the northern lights. I have seen oranges, grapefruit and figs growing on trees. I have seen a volcano, been in earthquakes,typhoons. Nothing on the earth is of interest..I want to see the big blue marble (earth) from space and not in a photo.
