London

London dazzles spectators with fireworks along the infamous Thames River.  The midnight fireworks display will be launched from the London Eye, a gigantic pseudo-Ferris Wheel that is celebrating it's 10th Anniversary this year.  Nearly 700,000 people head to Tower, Westminster and Blackfriars bridges to get the best view as the new year arrives, heralded by Big Ben's chimes.
