When we first started planning our trip in 2015, I had so many ideas of where I wanted us to go that I started to organize the places through Pinterest and good old paper and pencil. I had bought the book 1,000 Places To See Before You Die by Patricia Schultz for Brad years ago for Christmas so I got it off the bookshelf and used that as a reference point.
To see a complete list of all the places we have visited, go to the Places Visited and then Been There, Done That.
