Here’s a new bucket list: places we want to blog from before we die.

DOS OJOS ~ One of the longest and most spectacular underwater cave systems in the world is “Two Eyes” on the Caribbean coast of the Yucatan Peninsula. The waters of Dos Ojos are clear, warm and insanely ‘inviting.’

While I can’t imagine blogging underwater (which doesn’t mean I won’t try!) exploring the likes of Dos Ojos with a waterproof camera sounds like perfect blog material.

Dos Ojos is just one of many caverns I would mind meandering through; Carlsbad caverns, the Blue Grotto, Jeita Grotto and so many others wait for bloggers and explorers alike!

    One of my fav caving adventures was in Laos. They give you this crazy flash light that weighs a ton and an innertube…you pull yourself past these giant spiders into the mouth of a cave. It’s amazing…Anybody done that one?

    While not technically a cave, I love to sneak into the now shut down 2 mile train tunnel that burrows through Snowqualmie pass…it is crazy long and dripping and creepy!

    well – I haven’t been diving yet. A dream trip – to accomplish within this year –
    1. learn to SCUBA dive before I’m 66 (I’ll be 65 in a month). Travel to Kangaroo Island , Australia to find the leafy sea dragon. (I saw them at an exhibit at the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California this January. So I guess I can dream of blogging from Kangaroo Island!
