Endangered Places: Visit Before It's Too Late

While researching some info on the Dead Sea for our last post, I fell upon this article talking about endangered places... what?!

The list includes:
  • Maldives
  • Mount Kilimanjaro
  • Swiss Alps
  • Everglades National Park in Florida
  • Belize Barrier Reef
  • Tropical Rainforest Heritage of Sumatra, Indonesia
  • Tibet (or rather the Tibetan language and culture)
  • Rio Platano Biosphere Reserve in Honduras
  • The Dead Sea in Israel
  • Venice

Venice was the most shocking! Did you know that it is "a man-made wonder made up of 121 islets that are linked by 435 bridges"?

It looks like we better start making a list of places we want to visit before they are gone!! Some places we may get to knock out when we're on a trip for JD's company (i.e. Swiss Alps) but others we're just going to have to check out in our free time.


How about you?
Do you have a list of places you want to visit?
Have you ever been to any of these places?
