It strikes me as I fall asleep that I’m within of km of at least one, and am within a day’s travel of at least three more, Wonders of the Ancient World.

Not sure without googling if the Library at Alexandria was a wonder, but if so my hotel practically sits on its site, while the brilliant version 2.0 is a short walk along the seafront. A ride across the Med and I’d be sailing over the pile of rubble Formerly Known as the Colossus of Rhodes, or overland towards Iraq and I’d soon be in Babylon’s dusty garden memories. I can see into the harbour where the Lighthouse at Pharos once stood, and and of course I was galloping horses around the Pyramids a few experiences ago. It’s a nice thought to fall asleep to.
