WONDERS OF NATURE Trek the sand-swept Sahara. Swoop into the Grand Canyon's magnificent gorges of ever-changing colors. Watch the death-defying migration of thousands of animals in the Serengeti. Soar above the clouds to explore the Himalayas. Journey in wind and rain, fire and ice to the mighty Amazon, the awesome Iguazu Falls and the monumental Ayers Rock in Australia's Outback. Although all of nature's many miracles evoke a sense of wonder, in some places on our planet nature reveals her magnificence in very special ways. The Grand Canyon * Arizona, U.S.A. Intricate layers of rock reveal the story of life on earth. The Serengeti * Kenya/Tanzania, East Africa Hundreds of thousands of animals in a death-defying migration unchanged since the dawn of man. The Sahara Desert * Nigeria, West Africa A waterless sea of sand where one wrong turn can prove fatal. Iguaza Falls * Argentina/Brazil, South America The world's most spectacular waterfalls, with myriad rainbows appearing and then vanishing in the mist. The Amazon River * Brazil/Peru, South America Largest rainforest on the globe, sheltering half of the genetic heritage of life on this planet. Ayers Rock * Australia An enormous island of stone, its colors ever-changing in the rays of the sun. The Himalayas * Nepal, Asia An awesome sanctuary where peaks seem to touch the heavens.
