Nice picture! I think you've done way more of those things than me.
I love the picture, too...although it does unfortunately remind me of being terrified when I was actually in one of the gondolas in Venice. And I feel as though my life has allowed me to cheat on this list, since I got to cross off a good chunk just from living in Italy & France.
