New Year;s Preparation

  These are pictures from one of the local grocery stores which give you an idea of what New Year's Eve is all about here in Denmark.  We are already hearing the practice fireworks. I definitely remember the fireworks from last time we were here. The horizon is ablaze on New Year's Eve.  People spend thousands of dollars on them.  The hats, masks and costumes are new to me. But I was at a Salvation Army Second Hand Store today and there were a lot of people picking up costume-type items. Celebrations in different cultures are so interesting.
