Infographic: The Ultimate Bucket List

AROUND THE WORLD ...in One Bucket List 7 CONTINENTS, 7 ALMIGHTY ACTIVITIES AUSTRALJA Swim with whale sharks at Ningaloo Reef The best time to see these fantastic creatures is between mid-March and the end of July. The whale shark is the largest fish in the sea, reaching lengths of 40ft (12m) long, and weighing in at 20.6 tons, the same weight as 2 double decker London buses. The mouth of a whale shark is up to 2m wide and contains DANGER around 3 thousand tiny teeth. Don't worry about being on the menu though - these gentle giants feed predominantly on plankton which they filter through their gills. SOUTH AMERICA Gaze into Iguazu Falls on the border of Argentina and Brazil The best time to visit this incredible natural wonder is between May and September, when it's less crowded and there's a fair chance of good weather. Here, you'll find 275 individual falls, many of which measure over 30m taller than any of Niagara's cascades and, when combined, are twice as wide as their Canadian counterpart. The Iguazu Falls are the result of a volcanic eruption which left a large crack in the earth. ASIA Observe A Symphony of Lights' in Hong Kong This magnificent, synchronised, musical light show starts every night at 20:00 and lasts approximately 15 minutes. In 2$ The laser lights are projected from 44 different buildings on both sides of Victoria Harbour. It costs approximately 44 million Hong Kong Dollars to produce each year. EUROPE Climb Mount Etna in Sicily The best time to see Etna is during a lava-producing eruption. If this isn't happening during your visit then the spring and late summer months will bring you bright and pleasant days on this beautiful island. As one of the most active volcanoes in the world, Mount Etna has the longest recorded history of eruptions, with the first dating back to 1500 BC. 25% More than 25% of Sicily's population lives on Etna's slopes. NORTH AMERICA Burn rubber along Route 66 SANTA MONICA 66 End of the Trail Take this trip in early spring (unless you're a big fan of intense summer heat) and take the time to fully appreciate the blossoming American landscape. Route 66 covers around 4000km (2448 miles), and 4000 KM. crosses 8 states and 3 different time zones. Each year around 500,000 people gather in Downtown San Bernardino for 4 days at the 'Route 66 Rendezvous' - an engine-roaring celebration of the infamous road. AFRICA Witness the great migration 1.5 million wildebeest and 300,000 zebra make this epic journey every year in search of food and water. They travel north for around 1800 miles, from Tanzania's Serengeti Plains to Kenya's Masai Mara National Park. The best time to see the migration is usually between June and August, when the animals congregate and prepare to cross the infamous Grumeti River. ANTARCTICA Take a Zodiac cruise These cruises operate between early November and late March, yet animal sightings (whales, seals, penguins and many more) are more likely to occur between February and March. Antarctica is the highest, driest, windiest, emptiest, coldest continent on Earth, so take a coat! A single ice sheet covers allI but 2.4% of Antarctica's 14 million km?. So... what's on YOUR Bucket List? Enter our magnificent travel competition before 31st March for the chance to win an all expenses paid trip around the world, and a $50,000 cash prize.
