Paris on New Years eve is wonderful, though I'm sure its generally pretty great everywhere else in Europe. The popular thing to do is get dinner reservations for 9/10 PM. All the restaurants jack their prices up a lot since its New Years Eve and they can. Our restaurant gave us a free bottle of cham…

If you cross it by foot or by bike, you don't have to pay but by car, it is 5€!
This bridge goes accross the Seine, between Le Havre and Honfleur. At the time of its opening, in 1995, it was the longest cable-staye…

I think about $100 for a jump. After doing the nevis on the south island i thought this one would be boring. I did the water touch though where they dunked me in up to my waste.
