Edinburgh turns its city center into one gigantic party for New Year’s Eve, a day known in Scots as Hogmanay (pretty much tied with the German Silvester for most adorable thing to call New Year’s Eve).
New Year
A snowy New Year’s in Finland, without snow
Happy New Year! Where did you ring in 2014? We seem to start out each year somewhere different (in our five years in Munich, I think we were only there for its warzone-like Sylvester once). This year we had the pleasure of being invited to join some friends at their log cabin on a lake in a remote part of Finland. We’d lapped up their stories of snowy snowy New Year’s Eves past and could not wait to experience it ourselves.
Ringing in the New Year in Munich
Surprisingly, there isn’t an official fireworks display in Munich for New Year’s, even though it was probably the most fireworks I had ever seen on a single occasion.

Happy 2011.
