Rebecca Writes links to the Top 100 Wonders of the World. It's discouraging to see how much of the world you -haven't- yet seen. I'm 30 this year, so I need to get busy. . . I've got these crossed off the list:
1. Pyramids of Egypt at Giza 2. Grand Canyon 3. Karnak Temple 4. Acropolis/Parthenon 5. Nile River Cruise 6. Egyptian Museum 7. Valley of the Kings 8. Louvre Museum 9. Versailles 10. Carlsbad Caverns 11. Prague Old Town 12. Delphi 13. Sahara Desert 14. NY Skyline 15. Eiffel Tower 16. Niagra Falls 17. Suez Canal 18. San Francisco 19. Yosemite Nat'l ParkPosted by Discoshaman at juin 14, 2005 06:41 AM | TrackBack
I'm 31 this year, and I get to claim, lessee: 8, 10, 11, 15, er, well, that's it. All since the age of 27.
But then, I've also lived for two years in Japan, and I would *NEVER* have believed I'd do that.
God is good.

It's only one for me--Yellowstone.
And to tell you the truth, I think there are many parts of Alaska that are much more wondrous than Yellowstone.

Posted by: Sandra at juin 16, 2005 02:03 AMUm yeah, so hick mom here can count Carlsbad Caverns (when I was 7) and the New York Skyline (we were there for a total of 8 hours, so it wasn't like we really experienced it either).
Yawn for me.
