Aftermath

Ian of Letters Home wrote a strange-but-oh-sooooo-true post about the German (frenzy)/tradition of lighting masses of firecrackers on New Year’s Eve. Please take the time to read the post and look at the photos. Except for the murdered teddy bear, all of the other photos could have been taken in any city in Germany today.

  2. It really is weird. And loud. And stinks. We, on the other hand, lit some modest sparklers and watched our neighbors going crazy from a safe distance.

    Hi lilalia - thanks for linking to me! Some of the mess has been cleaned up, but they can't get out on to that ice...
