Just a couple of points before the celebrations begin, or not as the case may be, many parties in the U.K. have been cancelled due to the weather. The populations of Romania and Bulgaria will celebrating as they join the European Union, making the number of countries twenty-seven, nearly half a billion people. Nice little video from the Bulgarian government celebrating their entry, nice to meet you Bulgaria!
Noticed Channel 4 News using Google Earth to show the location of the final resting place of a recently departed leader.
Also spotted on Google Videos a selection of nice videos marking the Cousteau-Caml expedition to Antarctica.
Wishing you all a happy evening and a fruitful new year, remember the Passion4Geography team on Radio 4 tomorrow.

Our fireworks were up at midnight exactly!! And remained up for 10 minutes. We had 2 huge display fireworks.
We had 12 people round and had a great time!
I noticed that a well known airline have started using Google Earth to simulate their flights (BA) It’s such a cool advert!
Hope you had a good time!
Best for 2007
