You can't beat watching the All Blacks at Wembley in the World Cup.  Capacity crowd and we won the game too :-)

The beauty and thrill of experiencing a famous waterfall can't be beaten.  Niagara Falls (best seen from the Canadian side in my humble opinion) and a trip on the Maid of Mist to really get your hair wet and get right inside the falls.

If you love getting out and about and riding your bike take a ride over the Golden Gate Bridge ending in Sausalito.  Stop for a Margarita and some fish tacos then take the ferry back to the Pier at Fisherman's Wharf.  Great views and a thrill on the bikes.

If you can fit your holiday around a special sporting event its so worthwhile.  Watch your favourite team surrounded by die hard fans and take in a tailgate party on the way into the stadium.  Lots of fun.

Take a walk down Yawkee Way and buy your favourite players jersey whilst eating a Hot Dog before the game.  Get a seat in the stand where they come and serve you drinks and food without missing the game.  Then head to McGreevy's where Dropkick Murphy's play some gigs to finish off an epic day.
