New Years Eve

After seeing Amalia the movie about Amalia Rodrigues, the famous Portuguese Fado singer, we slowly started to party again. The evening started at 20.00 when most guests arrived. The first toast was at 23.00 as at that time the new year in the Netherlands started. At 24.00 we viewed the spectacular fireworks in Oporto, from the balcony at the 8th floor, giving a very nice view.The evening ended at 2.30. Great party and experiencing the great warmth of my Poruguese friends and the famliy again.




This morning already arranging the table for the lunch again, so eating and drinking a lot :-).
