Forty is approaching and while it's not really old, I think it might be time to start keeping a Bucket List, just do I don't forget all the wacky things I'd like to do someday. Plus, I'm a firm believer that if you have a plan, and send out that desire, you can usually make it happen.

I was reminded of this one today by a friend's pictures of her trip to Scotland and Skye:

I've always wanted to take a series of ferries from Scotland to the Hebrides, Orkneys, and Shetlands, Faroes, and then to Iceland.

On a viking longship would be awesome. :)

I should see if there are tour companies that do that and how much it would cost...

OMFG - THERE IS! *starts saving money*

ETA/notes to self: Okay, that one is dead, by I can probably drag
