I was really into the Bucket List thing for many years.
Palau was at the top of list.... and we did it. It met EVERY expectation and more. Best diving ever, hands down.
NC wrecks was on the list...... did 2 days there, not enough IMHO but weather sucked that week. Might go back.
I really wanted to dive in California, see the kelp and garibaldis, dive an oil rig.... did all of those, had a blast. Great diving.
Several other exotic places were on the list.... but I have been bored on a few dive trips lately. Yes, really got bored and ended a few dives early saying "okay, been there, now what".
I don't ever want to go on another dive trip that dissappoints me and makes me think we wasted our money and time.
I know of a few places that I am guaranteed GREAT dives every dive, and won't feel cheated out of my $$$. I will return to those over the unknown.
You will get there one day.... wondering why you did a trip, spent all that money, just to say you were there.
