The definitive bucket list - Lee Atkinson

The Definitive Bucket List is full of hundreds of holiday ideas across Australia and New Zealand, to inspire those with more time on their hands now that they've retired, or cut back on working hours.

You see these catchy phrases on bumper stickers, tea towels and even t-shirts, but all jokes aside, there is one thing we all know - no matter how old our driver's license says we are, we all feel much younger at heart. And travel goes a long way in keeping you young. The Definitive Bucket List will help you decide where to travel to next, and what to do when you get there,from luxury escapes to walking holidays, bike rides, train journeys, golfing trips, garden tours and unforgettable wildlife encounters.

Now that you've got the mortgage monkey off your back and a bit of a nest egg to spend, and the kids are old enough to look after themselves (even if they haven't yet left home), it's the perfect time to travel, particularly while you're still fit and active enough to really enjoy it. After all, you've earned it. LetThe Definitive Bucket List be your guide.
