New Year's Eve in Prague



At the stroke of midnight, the sky above Prague erupted in a grand display of fireworks that we enjoyed from our 6th floor balcony at Mosaic House. The sights and sounds were truly spectacular!

Since the ground floor in Europe is "0", we were actually 7 stories up, which was a good thing. The crowd on the street below was well supplied with fireworks of their own, one of which landed in the snow on our balcony. The next morning, as we walked to the tram stop, evidence of the celebration littered the streets and sidewalks. Amazingly, it was all cleaned up by late afternoon.

Enjoy the video!
