Re: The New Natural Wonders of the World

I have visited Milford Sound 4, Ayers Rock 9, Grand Canyon 10, Angel Falls 11, Matterhorn 17, Great Barrier Reef 24

My favorite of these is Milford Sound, a truly magical place.

Re: The New Natural Wonders of the World

I should hop over and have a look see one of these days. Seen many pics of Milford. NZ also has the most spectacular mountains

I need to get my hands on some serious $ so I can see some of these things before I get hit by a truck or develop some debilitating disease that shrivels my muscles or my mind goes south on me and I end up institutionalized or I get hit by lightning or my plane crashes or I go blind and cant see what Im looking at or I end up homeless sleeping in a gutter or I get that elephant man disease or a train runs me over or I die but really dont and they dont check again then bury me alive.

Re: The New Natural Wonders of the World

I would love to see Uluru one day, but I don't plan on walking on it (whether or not that's still allowed when I get there). I'd like to respect the place and what it stands for to the aborigines.
