Ringing in the New Year


Happy New Year! I can't believe that it is already 2016! Where does time go? We had quite an interesting New Years to say the least. Jet Lag had gotten ahold of us and wasn't letting go. We were so tired but knew we would regret not doing something to bring in the new year. I mean we are in Prague, we had to suck it up! We ended up walking a few miles to meet up with some friends we had met. We walked to Letna Park, which is a large park in Prague 7 that over looks the city. It was filled with thousands of people all of which were lighting off their own fireworks. It blew our mind how many people had professional grade fireworks and set them off wherever they wanted, with no regard to where people were standing. As the new year approached the fireworks got more frequent. As the clock struck 12, the energy throughout the city was indescribable. Everyone popped their bottle of champagne, lit off their fireworks, and smooched their loved ones. We felt so lucky to be apart of such a magical moment! If you are looking for a New Years like no other I highly suggest Prague!

Here is a video from NYE from the park overlooking the city. as many of you know pictures and videos sometimes cannot do justice but its a start! This is not a video we took, we used one from YouTube (We were too busy celebrating to get a good video!)
