I could have seen Chichen Itza but I opted to sit on the beach and drink instead. Don't I feel dumb! So I haven't seen any of these! How many have you seen, Katie?
I am very excited to say that I have seen 4 of these wonderful monuments. (3 of them with you!) What great adventures. Everyone should go! OF course, the Taj is my favorite, but the Colisseum is definitely a close second.
I've been to four--coliseum, christ the redeemer, taj mahal, and petra. The great wall and macchu picchu have been on the list, but now they may get bumped to the top!
Let's Go!
Katie: I'm just dropping in to say that I thoroughly enjoyed your article on the current SW blog. What a great idea to honor Southwest's military employees!
Well, slightly off subject, but on the same day was my absolute trouncing of Katie, Steve, & Ryan in Farkle. :) So I guess you could say that was a new Wonder of Dallas.
And I would love to see macchu picchu with you - I won't bring the dice...
I saw the Rio statue with you and Shanta! That was a fun trip! Jonathan didn't go to Machu Picchu (sp?) in Peru so that he could go someday with me, so maybe he gets a point for giving up one of the wonders of the world? I've been to two, though. I need to catch up!
Katie...
I'm always up for a trip. Japan next spring for the Cherry Blossoms?
