Fireworks

1/1/2018

Happy New Year!

We had no expectations of what a Freiburg New Year’s Eve would be like.

At midnight, the sky lit up with fireworks all around our flat.  There wasn’t one specific show, but fireworks set off in every direction from random people and locations. We could see some from every window of the house, and it continued for 45 minutes!

Today we saw a lot of evidence on sidewalks and in curbs. I imagine the street cleaners are anticipating a big work day tomorrow.

That’s a much healthier and more beautiful way to celebrate the new year than getting drunk. Don’t the Mexicans and/or South Americans do that, too?
