My Travel Wishlist (Part III)

The list just continues to grow, despite having crossed off five things since the last update on January 13th. Technically, two things were added and immediately crossed off -- I arrived in Australia and realised that opera in Sydney and Grand Slam tennis in Melbourne really should have been on the list to begin with.
