Times Square on New Years Eve |
What the hell were we thinking? Please explain this to me? Why would we intentionally stand out in the cold with one million (yes MILLION) of our closest friends; with no bathroom; with no food or water; without being able to hear any of the festivities; with apparently nothing resembling sanity for SIX hours just to say "ten...nine...eight...seven...six...five...four...three...two...one...HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! Why? Why did we do this? |
An experience of a lifetime that I only want to experience ONCE in my lifetime |

Happy NEw Year with confetti |
Happy New Year with Fireworks |
Happy New Year!!! |
Hour five and we're still in Times Square We can't hear anything and all we can see is this, but we're here |
It was unseasonably warm for NYC but we were still pretty darn cold |
Midnight at last I was so glad While it was interesting for about ten minutes, NYE in Times Square is pretty darn overrated |

Roy is freezing and is beginning to wonder if this is all worth it |
Still a happy new year |
The ball is lit |
The ball is still lit |
This guy nearly lost his life over this sign, but at least it was something to pass the time |
Tory on New Years Eve before she lost her sense of humor |
We spent six hours looking at these signs |
When you're standing in one place for six hours you take a lot of pictures of the same old thing |
Withing ten minutes of this shot we were soaking in a hot tub in our hotel room saying -never again- |
