Landmarks

This is a book that I purchased recently and have just thoroughly enjoyed. Some landmarks were obvious, Sydney Opera House, Leaning Tower of Pisa, Colosseum, Kremlin and the Red Square. There were others which I had a vague familiarity with, Ayers Rock, Rock of Gibraltar, Great Wall of China and Edinburgh Castle. Then there were those that I had never heard of, Samarkand, Neuschwanstein, Potala Palace, Guggenheim Museum Bilbao and the Atomium.
Jeff and I had fun looking through the book seeing which of these landmarks HE had either just seen with his own eyes or had gone into. (16). I only had 6 from the list and only one of those Jeff had not been to, Pearl Harbor. That man is a world traveler!
