Last spring we had a trip to Edinburgh booked but as you know that trip was canceled due to the big strike within SAS. And this year's trip to Edinburgh was canceled too. For this spring we have a trip to Paris booked during late May, but that too is at risk for being canceled due to the Coronavirus. Well, our trip to Paris is canceled.

For some reason that I just can't explain, Paris is right at the top of my bucket list, and seeing as this will be our first trip with baby Jules, Paris just seemed like a good destination to start with. I want to experience the city with her, and show her all the things that the capital of France has to offer. It would be a dream come true. But it all looks really bad and our dreamtrip has once again turned into just a dream.

Just imagine walking down the romantic streets of Paris with a babystroller, getting ready for a new day of showing my daughter what the world has to offer. Stopping at a coffee and cake shop, whilst overlooking the river Seine. Having a picnic under the Eiffel tower. Paris just seems to be the kind of city that is really baby-friendly, an easy destination to start with when you are traveling as a new family with a toddler. If you have been to Paris with a toddler or a young child, please let me know how your trip turned out. I would love to hear your tips and tricks for traveling with a youngster.

I am not all that worried for myself but I do get concerned for the baby and all the others out there that are more likely than myself to contract the virus. I do feel that I have an obligation to rethink my choices when it comes to traveling, seeing as it might affect others more than me. But of course, I am keeping my fingers crossed that it all calms down fast, so we can continue to travel in good conscience, it would really suck not to be able to make the trip now that we all have our minds set for vacation. But all we can really do for now is just wait and see how it all plays out, that and wash our hands.

What are your feelings regarding the Coronavirus?
Do you have any trips planned in the future that is at risk of being canceled?

You know, for us Swedes, we don't have quarantine like most of the cities in Europe or the US. We do practice social distancing, but not to the extent that the rest of the world. Let me give you some examples of how it looks for us, we can still book a table at a restaurant, go out for coffee with friends as long as we do it in smaller numbers, and don't sit close together, we're fine. Most people go to work unless you have the kind of work that will allow you to work from home, the smaller businesses get affected, for sure. More people use their own cars instead of public transportation. Some stores have extra opening hours for the people within the high risk of being affected. You are not permitted to visit your family that is stationed at the retirement home or in the hospitals.
Social distancing is working for us.

And for the question, everyone is asking right now, even if you could travel - say that the world opens up, should you really travel in times like this?

Yes, we did a Bucketlist for 2019 aswell, so why not make it a tradition?

Last year we cheated by putting Madrid on the list, even though we had already booked the trip. But then again, I think we kind of jinxed last year's list, cuz we only made it to two of our bucket list destinations. We made it to Madrid and Edinburgh in Scotland. We didn't even make it to Copenhagen, and that's like a train ride away...

So first off is two of last year's bucket list destinations, that we're gonna leave on the list for this year as well. Maybe even a third... yes, a third, let's keep three. Here we go, Paris, New Orleans and Scotland are staying. Some of the other destinations that were on last year's list has kind of lost the priority and is no longer that attractive. Does that make sense?

• Paris - yes, I know its kind of cheating, since our trip to Paris is a done deal, we're going to Paris at the end of May. But has been on the list since last year, so it's staying on.
  
• New Orleans - I called it an overreach last year, but I don't think so anymore. This is one of those dream-come-through trips, and I'm thinking that this is the year when my dream does come through.
  
• Edinburgh - Yes, I know, I did make it to Edinburgh last year, and the year before that, so I have checked that off the list, but that doesn't mean that I can't go back, does it? And as you all know I am cheating again, since we've already booked another trip Edinburgh during Beltane.
  
• Greece - I would love to see more of the greek island. I have been to Greece a bunch of times, to both the mainland and several of the islands, but there are still places I would love to see and maybe even have a summer vacation there. I guess this is cheating too, cuz we visited Athens for New Years, so... ah well.
  
• Tallinn - oh yes, this trip is definitely long overdue. I so want to go on a cruise ship from Stockholm for a weekend in Estonia.
• Copenhagen - Yepp, I think that was on last year's bucket list as well. But after going on that train ride to the south of Sweden I really do want to go to Copenhagen by train, that seems like a great trip to do.
• A New Years Trip - well, as always I want to go away for a New Years' trip, but I have not really decided or found the right destination yet, so can I get back to you on that? Or maybe you have some advice on where to spend the New Years' weekend?
  
  

We had eight destinations on last year's list, but this year we have shortened it to seven, which seems obtainable. And to make the list more obtainable, we shorten the number of destinations by one... Haha okay, let's just say this, we could have made last year's list for sure, life just kind of got in the way.

Of course, the ultimate bucket list is way longer than that, for sure. But if we don't stop at an achievable number, we're gonna go totally bananas. We have talked about it and to be completely honest, besides the destinations listed above, we are not totally sure where we want to go during 2020 ... do you?

If you have a bucket list for 2020 of your own, please link it down below, we would love to read yours!

We found this really cool post at our fellow travelblogger Litemerarosa and looking around we found out that Stadtillstrand had filled in the list as well, so hey, lets do it!

This post is about how many capitals you have visited whilst travelling around the world. And to be honest, we did not think that we had visited that many, but after reading our fellow bloggers posts we found ourselfs thinking "Hey, we've been there to!" This maybe a bit unfair, cuz this is our combined list of capitols, but then again, theres two of us writing on this blog and we both wanted to do the list. So lets see who of us has been to the most capitals, Ann or Angelica?

Finland, Helsinki.
Oh yes, moste swedes has taken a cruiseship from Stockholm to Helsinki. And even though the cruise that we did to Finland together took us to Turku, we have both been to Helsinki before. But none of us have any digital photoes from our trips, sorry.
