The last 5:

21. Take leisurely bike rides around the city, through the park, up the block, to a friend’s house…

22.  Scribble random, inspirational messages on the sidewalk with colorful chunks of chalk

23. Set up a lemonade stand for an afternoon. Whether you charge or not is entirely up to you. Interact with as many people as possible.

24. Go to the park and attempt to play bocce. Let the hilarity begin…

25. Eat ice cream outside as much as possible. A trip to an old-fashioned ice cream parlor(if you can find one) sounds awesome.

Well, I will be crossing items off of my list and I hope that you will be doing the same. Please feel free to let me know in the comments if you have tackled anything on the list or if you have other ideas that sound way more interesting.

Thanks!!

Shall we continue? 

Summer Lovin’

16. Go to your local coffee shop or cafe with an outdoor bench, chairs, etc. Sit there and people watch.

17. Amusement Park Time!! Tilt-a-Wheel, Bumper Cars, Roller Coasters. Try going to one after sunset. Sit on the Wonder/Ferris Wheel with the night sky above and all the twinkling lights below. 

18. Make a list of all the free outdoor shows left. Try to go to as many as possible whether you like the music or not. Proceed to dance…

19. Recreate the infamous Trevi fountain scene from La Dolce Vita.  Find the nearest fountain and jump in , make sure you have a Marcello around to complete the scene and to vouch for your sanity if its called into question by authorities.

20. Take a mini-road trip somewhere. Anywhere, pick a place within thirty miles and put the pedal to the metal and go!! Take lots of pictures!! Extra points if they’re polaroids.
