We're setting off fireworks off the balcony and chilling the champagne.
This guy is "father old year" or something like that. Dozens of these dummies lined C.A. 5 (the main highway running north to south) on New Year's Eve as we drove from La Ceiba back to the capital. This guy and many others represent saying good bye to the previous year and saying hello to the new year. I think some of these dummies even meet a fiery end as they are set on fire at the stroke of midnight...
Here's to a great new year... hope 2011 is a sweet one.
¡Feliz Año!
Happy New Year! We need more traditions that include dummies and fire, so I say ENJOY and rock on. I am envious that this new year will find you living in 3 countries, and excited that you will bring me to another part of the world. When shall we start planning?
