    God bless you, JP Liz V1 :)




  • This competition is rapidly falling asunder.

    A lot of tactical voting.

    Has there ever been one of these where you haven't been whining?

    Either a multi-reg or a wind up merchant but he's excluded from voting for the next round as a result!

    Machu Picchu for me here..... not even sure i can say why, but it just appeals to me more - both are huge, widely known landmarks, but if I was offered a trip to Peru or Egypt, I'd take Peru in a heartbeat.

    Machu Picchu ; because sand gets everywhere and I can't be dealing with that. And its also nicer and stuff, but mostly the sand thing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 25,803 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    Giza but this is a really close one. But if I had a golden ticket to fly over and see one it would be Giza

    Ancient site showdown!!

    Going with the Pyramids of Giza (Egypt)

    Love them and really want to visit them.

    Is this open to any poster or is it just those who nominated places ?

    Machu Picchu (Peru)

    Because I like the idea of a hiking holiday to get to it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,430 ✭✭✭✭Tauriel


    Mac!!! That's a horrible match up! Both deserve to be in the final.

    I will go with Pyramids of Giza (Egypt) as my obsession with Ancient Egypt spans longer.

    This is good because I think at this stage, I should actually read up a bit on each of the landmarks rather than choosing on looks alone! :pac:

    Pyramids of Giza - because it crazy how old they are, & to think that people were around over 4000yrs ago. God, someone needs to invent time travel asap


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,936 ✭✭✭Citizenpain


    Machine pichu
    Been there and amazing


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,022 ✭✭✭Cosmo Kramer


    Machu Picchu again for me - definitely where I would choose if I could go to either.

    Also it doesn't have a KFC and I'm more of a Nandos man anyway.

    Machu Picchu
    Two powerhouses I would be happy to see in the final, prefer Machu Picchu slightly more


  • Registered Users Posts: 39,874 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Well then Machu Picchu as I watched a documentary on it recently having always liked for look of the place and the engineering that went into it was amazing even by today’s standards.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 7,211 Mod ✭✭✭✭cdeb


    Would much rather visit Machu Picchu. The mountain setting looks spectacular, and I prefer mountains over deserts, so it wins for me.

    Machu Picchu advance to the Semi Final

    Sagrada Familia ; I hope that Rainbow is always there, because it seals the deal for me
