Mt Vesuvius - the Last days of Pompeii and all that. The Devil's Tower is actually sort of a disappointment up close and personal. Wyoming should stick to Yellowstone to bring the tourist trade in.

Not that I have anything against the Scottish (isn't that Hadrian's Wall marvellous, though...?), but that Millau Bridge is something else. We saw it being contructed as we travelled to Spain via the Massif Central each year. For once modern construction has it over history - well, for me, anyway - maybe the first split vote...?
Millau Viaduct (Oil delivery tomorrow at high cost - I feel a long exchange with my supplier coming on as I try to claw back the overage...)

Stonehenge - mystery construction, Druids, human sacrifices (well, maybe that's pushing it a bit - still, much more interesting than a big lump of chalk immortalised by Vera Lynne)
