Wonders of the World
Since I was little, probably like every other kid on the face of the Earth.. I wanted to see the world. As everyone knows, Egypt is the first place to see on my list (even tho everyone I speak to say it's kind of sad now)...but browsing the web, I came across a list of all the Wonders of the World (Old and New). So I decided to post them here, cuz, well, it's interesting, and when I have nothing to do, I'll be researching them. So here it is people... the Wonders of the World!Key:*- Dying to Go&See**- Have seen
