Since I was a little girl, it has always been my dream to visit all the Wonders of the World - or at least my definition of a wonder. Undoubtedly that includes the seven ancient wonders, modern wonders, or what other classifications there are today of the world's greatest sights. And so far I've only accomplished one, the Great Wall of China seven years ago. So once I heard of Windows of the World in Shenzhen, I knew that was the place I had to go.
Though kitsch, I loved taking in every bit of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Pyramids in Egypt, Mount Rushmore in South Dakota, The Eiffel Tower, The Colosseum, Mount Corcovado, Taj Mahal, Niagara Falls and other attractions that have always been a lifelong dream. Walking around the huge park that housed the things other than shopping that leave me on an ecstatic high, we covered every inch of the place despite fatigue and some rare nerves down the flume ride at the Grand Canyon.
Definitely one of my highlights this year, and my little girl dreams are going to go from being castles in the skies to reality one day.
