Happy New Year!

It's about 6.45pm local time and the muezzins have just finished their post-sunset calls to prayer. As it's 3.45am in Sydney, everyone "back home" has already watched the fireworks, twice, enjoyed copious amounts of alcohol and probably went to bed a couple of hours ago.

Meanwhile, Jace and I are here in our hotel in downtown Cairo, enjoying our respective bottles of duty free Chivas Regal and Absolut Berri Açaí.

It might not sound like much, but we're loving our quiet NYE in.

I hope 2011 brings with it joy, love, laughter, peace, prosperity and good health to you all!

  1. HAPPY NEW YEAR guys!! You will begin your countdown in an hour or so!! Mum and I had a Pina Colada for you and we saw the New Year in much like you did. A quiet one but with loved ones...how could you go wrong?? I mean it's not the Brisbane Eye (hehe!) but it was good! Hope your 2011 is a great year! Lanie xoxox
