It was cold and foggy, but they have swing bands in the capital, historic contradances in the historic capital, banks sponsoring more bands or a vignette, or a poetry reading, places to pick up food. At midnight, against the foggy cold sky, they set off fire works, which were gorgeous set off by that gray haze.Wild Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09653340334412641577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3198460211087859887.post-27141706374623518262010-01-06T13:03:46.982-08:002010-01-06T13:03:46.982-08:00Wow, Pseudo, it sounds like fun there for NYE!

Period.<br /><br />Perhaps because most of our celebrations were aclohol fueled back then and it is no longer considered PC to drink and drive. Apparently we need to take party plannning tips from your part of the world. Oh wait..fireworks are completely illegal here too.

Since it's usually raining here on New Year's Eve, what usually ends up happening is my neighbors run outside at midnight, set off a few firecrackers, and then run back inside to towel off.
