Let's see if I can remember without looking:

1. the Great Pyramid at Giza
2. the Hanging Gardens of Babylon
3. the Statue of Zeus (can't recall where it was)
4. the Great Lighthouse (also no location comes to ming)
5. the Colossus of Rodes
6. the Library at Alexandria
7. the Great Wall of China (I bet this is wrong, but it should be on there :)

OK, let me look this up and see what the correct answer is.

According to: http://www.cnn.com/TRAVEL/DEST INATIONS/9705/seven.wonders/
I got 5 of 7 (Pharos means lighthouse apparently.) You should check this site out, it has a good virtual tour of the Seven Wonders.

Pyramids of Egypt
Pharos of Alexandria
Hanging Gardens of Babylon
The Temple of Artemis
Statue of Zeus
Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
The Colossus of Rhodes

You should also check out this site which has excellent background and historical information:

Good luck and good history.
