Wednesday 31 December - New Year's Eve

Here we are again, on the final day of 2014. Fireworks are a major thing here in Holland at this time, but the government now only allow people to let them off between 6pm and 2am. Nonetheless, we did spot some young folk letting off carbid bangs. Went for a walk in the woods, but a nagging cold is precluding us from making major forays at this time. In the evening, we watched some entertainments, until midnight struck.
A thaw is now well underway, and the ice on the pavements is melting.
