This month has been a really really full one! One highlight included our Belarusian style (read: 48 hours long) New Years Party!
It was my first New Years in Belarus and I think I may never be the same. New Years in Belarus is an experience everyone should have once. I'm still recovering!
Here's an excerpt from my blog, The Big LaBLOGski:
It all began with a little New Years party we decided to throw here at Moishe House Minsk. A little party that lasted over 48 hours...
(The party starts!)
(And many hours later... It seems the party has ended.)
In Minsk, January is not a quiet month. You see, the Belarusians love their New Years, and all the tinsel, Father Frosts, chatchkes, "New Year trees," and fireworks that go along with it. The Belarusians love their New Years so much that even today, January 25th, people are still setting off fireworks in the streets. So, in honor of what has undeniably been the longest celebration of my life, I raise my glass to you and acclaim, "C NOVOM GODOM!" "Happy New Year!"
