Win a night on a mountaintop 10,000 feet up in the Alps

6/26/2012

It won't be "too darn hot" for the lucky lovers who win a night sleeping alfresco on a bed perched 10,000 feet up in the Alps. Austrian tourism officials are auctioning off this unforgettable experience on eBay. "It is a very romantic site under a sky of stars with no one to hear or see you," boasts a mountain guide, adding, "If they feel the earth move they'd better get going, it could be an avalanche." In addition to a glacier-grazing double bed, a toilet and a luxury food hamper (?!), the winner also gets the feel-good factor of knowing profits go to UNESCO. This little getaway seems guaranteed to bring passion to new heights.
