One freezing morning last week K and I heard a radio contest where a contestant has to decide to keep going through different vaults in order to win money. The maximum pot of winnings is
$10, 000. At the 5th vault the woman had climbed up to over $2000. It was getting so exciting. It went to about 9 vaults and she ended up winning the $10,000! It doesn't happen often but we couldn't help but admire her sense of adventure and pure courage to keep going on, gambling at its finest! I would've given up at $2000. What an uplifting way to start the morning! Then they started playing one of my favourite songs on the radio by Bon Jovi, (who says you can't go home? ) Do you have days like that which start off on the right note?
A friend sent me this article on the world's happiest countries, I'd love to visit them all. Well, Canada's on the list and I've been to Switzerland. What countries are on your bucket list?
My son K sent me this pretty instagram photo he took on the beach when we were in Jamaica.

Australia and New Zealand are on my travel bucket list. I would love to travel there and see the sights. Glad to know they are such happy places.

How interesting that the U.S. is not on there. We have Ireland on our bucket list for sure!!! And I'd love to see Norway and Sweden someday too.
I would just love to go back to England, and stay there! Valerie
I would like to go to Italy, and Thailand. With the snow and freezing rain we had last night and this morning, looking at your beach picture is just so good for me right now!
I would love to France someday.:) Nice photo Christine
Very interesting article. I have never been to Norway, but now I would like to see for myself why it is considered the happiest country in the world.
Interesting! I wouldn't mind going to Ireland or Canada but most of the countries I would like to visit are not on the list :-(
I've always wanted to go to New Zealand!

I'm not surprised by the countries on the list, and that the U.S. isn't on it.
I'd be delighted to visit South Africa and Japan and experience their culture.
