#LTGoWithOh bucket list item 5
It’s #LTgowithoh bucket list item time! We don’t mean to brag, but the countdown to our epic reunion adventure is under ONE MONTH away. Cha, we know. Ridiculous. This means our bucket list is growing by the minute. We’ll try not to overwhelm you, but know this. The number of planning posts is going to increase in direct proportion with our level of excitement. You have been warned.

hotel highlight: first landing beach resort
Because we wanted to spend the majority of our time in Fiji in the Yasawas, we sadly said goodbye to Taupo and John after our short visit at Danny’s Village Homestay, and made our way back toward Nadi. Stop #2 in Fiji: First Landing Beach Resort in Lautoka. Another friendly TTF driver, Rishi, came and picked us up in the afternoon. We opted for a shuttle, so he made a second stop at a nearby resort. A group of Australians hopped on, including an eight-year-old boy. The roads in Fiji can be pretty bumpy, so it wasn’t surprising when the…

#LTGoWithOh bucket list item 4
We’re getting closer and closer to our great Eastern European adventure, and our minds are reeling with possible bucket list items to add to our itinerary. As if this comes as a surprise to anyone, we decided we couldn’t spend a week in Vienna without a pilgrimage to the motherland. And by motherland, we of course mean wine country. #LTGoWithOh Bucket List Item 4 Visit Wine Country Austria could not make it any easier for wine lovers. Vienna’s 700 hectares of vineyards are connected through a central wine trail, which you can walk once a year in the fall when it…
