BAGAN

Melanie, and everybody, behold Bagan. Bagan is in Burma and looks incredible. There is even a company there you can pay to give you a ride in a hot air balloon.





































...and there's this place, which is near Bagan...

Dad's list: It's probably too late and I probably won't get anything but oh well!

New toaster! I'm tired of burning my toast!
Drill bit set. My current set is dull.
Running shoes. I wore out the pair I got last year.
Desodorante -make sure it doesn't have zinc or I'll be scratching my armpits like bimbo the chimp.
Shaving brush. For a hot shave every day!
Flash drive. To save my stuff.
VCR to DVD recorder. Then I can get rid of all those videos in the garage.
Telescope. So I can look at Jupiter!
In door pull-up bar. This would be a present to my pecs, and biceps.
Saw blade. 7" circular blade for general use.
Slacks. I must look respectable!
Cable upgrade. Last Saturday I missed 2 games(BYU vs UTEP and Fresno State vs N. Ill.) because I didn't have ESPN. BYU channel, Discovery, and history channel would be cool too.
New Additions to list
Subscription to American Heritage, National Geographic, or Smithsonian magazines.
Photographs of tonight's lunar eclipse. This might be tough due to all the clouds!

2. Sk8 shoes
Canvas 106 Vulcanized from Vans or the Chuckka Low Suede/Corduroy, Women from Vans

3. Shoes and boots of all kinds

4. Just like Emily I'd like some large rings, bangles and bracelets, and purdy necklaces


































5. Dresses reminiscent of this..

6. A record player as well as old jazz or folk records. This record player is pretty cheap from Target.

7. Old publications of classic novels if possible, if not then new ones are good too! Pale Fire by Vladimir Nabokov is one I desire.













8. Teeth whitening strips

















9. After reading Nathan's I would like to add cool, unique instruments to my list. Also a harp, or a mini harp although I know no one can afford this.
