Seeing my favourite player again
I love travelling in winter apparently but I guess that is to be expected since I LOVE hockey. Early in 2020, before the pandemic really hit North America, I made a trip to Winnipeg and boy, February is the wrong time to go.

Completed: February 21, 2012 I thought I would start with this one since it happened exactly 7 years ago today. This was the first thing ever to be on my bucket list (after becoming a sister). I have been a fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs since I was a little girl as my dad got me into cheering for them at a young age and I had always wanted to see them play live.
