With a little 'time I review mentally what' that was the evening of New Year's Eve, spent in Brno and what it represents to me.
When I lived in Milan, Italy, New Year was an anguish.
I had great financial resources when I was a kid, then I would not have spent anyway cards 100 for an evening like this.
In Italy this anniversary seems like a competition to see who is more ', the usual gaudy ostentation, Burin, peasant.
For several years I have preferred the street festivals, with concerts, live among strangers, in the cold, but at least listening to decent music.
Since I live abroad, I learned to spend this evening and have fun in a different way.
In a few friends, often impromptu party, but pleasant. In Dublin
enough 'to find the home of a colleague to bring something to eat and drink and celebrate the two midnight, given the different time zone.
Brno last year, just days before the fateful new year, we organized a nice party at my house and the children with which meal.
year until I had lunch programs, but then my friend david first Czech and then Oscar (Argentina) and his girlfriend (Brazil) joined me and Jana, for what was a beautiful evening.
Meeting in the square, where some still stand offering hot drinks to face the cold.
Initially we were among the few brave, then the square was filled with the usual order, creating a circle within which different shooting firecrackers and fireworks.
The countdown Ceko, uncorked the champagne and then walk to one of my favorite local .
There is no row, you pay 50 CZK (2 €) entry.
The music is pleasant, Revival, rock n roll, vintage, without that annoying 'uzz uzz-'.
continue to drink but not devastated.
I would like to start the year without a hangover and so 'will, even after half a bottle of vodka, a couple of mulled wine', a couple of glasses of sparkling wine and some beer.
If you have time to digest alcohol, it becomes more 'pleasant.
We dance, laugh, take pictures, talking, until 'it is time to go home with the intention of doing a drive late in the morning, to visit the area (floor then rejected). My friend David
lingers to fulfill a formality, after a tasty kebab and we lose a second bus that night, even at New Year, every half-hour shows home the revelers.
Hmm ... ok, I've done worse and I was always with good david.
Take a taxi or CZK 200 (8 €) brings us back home.
Happy 2011 to everyone, good and bad. Good
2011 Brno!
