#Rio de Janeiro, #Brazil
A woman with a #dove on her back pays tribute to #Yemanja, goddess of the sea, during a traditional New Year’s Eve celebration at Copacabana beach.
On #NYE my friend flew home. There was a farting witch hunt.
I do wonder what this woman’s plan was if she had found the offender. Have them stand up, point at them so fellow #Delta passengers could pelt food at them while booing? Lock them in the lavatory? Would that prevent them from (understandably) having gas?
Remember when I complained about the staggering numbers of people setting off fireworks in the last 2 weeks?
Well, this:
On #NYE, Phoenix experienced the HIGHEST smoke levels since reliable records began in 2010.
As the clock struck midnight, New Year's Day smoke levels remained the 3rd highest since records began in 2011. #AirQuality#Pollution#Phoenix#Arizona
In "The Year of Magical Thinking" she (Joan Didion) calls someone on the west coast to tell them that her husband has died and thinks, for a monent, that it hasn't happened there yet.
Fortunate to be in Reykjavik for New Year’s. We’d heard the are fireworks amazing & they were. Also enjoyed the traditional Áramótaskaupið news comedy special that virtually everyone here watches at 10:30pm on New Year’s Eve. Our taxi driver told us you know it’s on because all the fireworks stop for an hour and — true! Didn’t catch all the references but what we did was very funny (thanks RÚV 2 for having it with English subtitles). Happy New Year to you all. #NYE#reykjavik#iceland
Passing out after putting the kids to bed and waking up at 23:45 I think was a move made out of win. Then put on my noise cancelling head phones and wrote/watched until 03:30. #NYE
