[$]  - Tour Eiffel
[-]  - Colosseum
[-]  - Taj Mahal
[-]  - Kilimanjaro
[-]  - Macchu Picchu   though I fear as I am a smoker, the altitude might
be a bit difficult for me to cope with. Mexico
city was difficult at times.....
[-]  - Legoland Billund
[-]  - Hadrian's wall      been living in England for 12 years, still haven't
seen it..
[$]  - Berlin wall     remnants of, at least. Got there 3 months too late....
[-]  - Reichstag Though I was in Berlin, it was only for the day, on
an airline interline trip (Read piss-up!)
[-]  - Bridge of sighs
[-]  - San Marco cathedral
[$]  - Great wall of China
[$]  - Forbidden City
[ ]  - Gum    ??????????
[$]  - Statue of Liberty

[-]  - Other, namely...Angkor Wat.   Got as far as Phnomh Penh, but
the cost general safety situation at the time
meant I had to  forgo and head off to Viet Nam
earlier than planned.
[-]  - Other, namely..Lhasa, Tibet, and Mt Everest (though not to climb!)
[-]  - Other, namely..La Ruta Maya
[-] Uluru. Been to Sydney, but was only in Australia for a couple of days....
[-] The Great Barrier Reef
[$] Chichen Itza
[$] Pyramids of the Sun and Moon, Mexico
[$] Niagara Falls
[$] A Total Solar Eclipse. Though not a place, it is a sight to be seen. I
have seen 2, and recommend the experience to everyone.
[-] A good view of an erupting volcano, perhaps those on Hawaii

I have been to many places, though haven't seen much of the types of things
that might qualify for a list such as this.
