On the 31st of December Chrisi and I drove to Linz. It is the cultural capital of europe 2009. We we standing on a wall in front of the Danube (river) that we can see the big fireworks. There were 30 000 people. We drank 2 bottles of sparkling wine and a few beers and celebrated the year 2009 at the big "Hauptplatz" with live music.
We were in a very good mood and started speaking english.
At 4 0' clock in the morning we asked a young man, where we can get typical austrian food. We probably spoke so good because everybody spoke english with us. We talked with a few people. Two hours later we asked people where the taxis are. We knew it of course but we wanted to check if they show us the right way. We did like we were tourists. It was great fun.
Finally at 5 we took the tram to the railway station and we got a taxi there. We were at home at half 5 and in bed at 6.
We got up at 11 in the morning and I drove home. I was really tired but hadn't time to sleep because I had to go to my grandparents to wish a HAPPY NEW YEAR and drink again and eat a self made cake from my granny. So, I went to bed at 10 in the evening.
That is a short video of the fireworks:
