New Year’s Eve in Mexico City

6 01 2011

Enjoyed Mexico City for NYE 2010/2011.  Kiana, Kendall, my Dad, and my best friend Jennifer all celebrated with me here in Mexico City at the Monument of the Revolution, where 40,000 people reportedly gathered to listen to a concert, count backwards in Spanish, watch a very cool fireworks show, and dance for a couple of hours.  We had a great time.  All of us were awed by the number of people, yet the orderly way in which the event went off.

 

 

The fireworks were a riot – they were closer than I’ve ever seen them in the US, and directly overhead of the crowd – safety regulations being what they are (or aren’t) in Mexico…

 

 

 

We left not long after the countdown, and went back to the apartment for champagne and our requisite 12 grapes.   In all, a very cool experience.
