Travel seems to hold a special place in the hearts and minds of most of us, whether it is the vacation to get away from work or the lifetime memory created by visiting a special place or having a unique experience. This is Part 2 of Stephen’s 200 travel bucket list ideas – my own personal memory-makers from a lifetime of travel to 54 countries.
It is a long list with a lot of photos, so I have segmented the list into four parts, each one with links to the other three. What follows is Part 2, #51 – 100 of the list.

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Windjammer text” _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”]
I love many things about Windjammer cruises. They are old sailing ships where you can help hoist the sails. Meals are local, sometimes prepared on-shore. And the ships are small enough to anchor at islands the big cruise ships never see.

The Summer Palace was the retreat of emperors for centuries to escape the heat of Beijing. Today the beautiful grounds can be visited during the day only. But as guests of the adjacent Aman resort, they open a gate to allow us to prowl around in the pitch dark of night. I hope all those growling dogs we hear are not on the loose.

Many years ago I drove a VW bug from Acapulco to Mexico City. It is only 400km, but in those days the road was only partially paved, and it took two days. It was made slower by being stopped by the Policia Federal, who were searching for the recently kidnapped mayor of Acapulco. Fortunately, he could not be found in my trunk or glove compartment.

Everybody should experience riding a Segway at some point of their life. I was fortunate enough to be taught how by its inventor many years ago. In those days, we weren’t sure if it was a passing fad or something that would revolutionize personal transportation. I guess it turned out to be somewhere in between. Today, one can take Segway tours in cities such as San Francisco.
