While you are busy booking other
people’s travels, don’t forget to
take a bit of time to check things
off YOUR bucket list. You all work
so hard to help your clients with
their bucket lists, I wouldn’t want
to see you delaying yours.
Last month I was able to check 2
things off my bucket list: Seeing
Michelangelo's original David in
Florence.
|
And seeing the Pantheon in Rome
while traveling with friends.
|
There were a few more things on our
list from this past trip, but we
will have to head back to check
those off the list next year.
Sincerely,
Dave Emery
