Reading my first book on my own.

Technically I guess it's "travel to far off places".

Physically is when I finished a bicycle tour from Mobile Bay to Niagara Falls.

Growing old enough to recognize my early "triumphs" might have been mistakes, but soon enough that I have the opportunity to make them right.

I agree it seems like a weird way to think.

All of the above producing the greatest experience should be a choice.

OTHER: as in there has been no single thing that has been the greatest experience in life.

So many things on the list apply and things like "the inordinate amount of luck" required to find your soul mate (who happened to be half a world away), to find a "home" in a new town where friends are worthy of such titles, to live in a locale that satisfies virtually all the requirements for a healthy, happy life have been overlooked.
