Over New Year's Eve we had another set of whirlwind travelers visiting: Jenny and Aleks. We got to ring in 2012 with them along the beach that was as bright as daylight due to all the stadium-grade lights they have along the boardwalk. In the picture below is the last sparkles from a fireworks display.
Below Aleks tries to document the Moroccan child Chariots of Fire reenactment that took place. You can rent these horse chariots that are bicycles and they were holding the children back to let them all go at the same time. When they unleashed them, somewhat organized chaos ensued, so it wasn't too different than being on the streets with real cars. It was fun to watch the near-misses and mini-collisions.
Strolling the beach on another sunny day....sigh.
We wrapped up the far too short 'golden weekend'-esque visit with some Shwarma sandwiches and Australian open replays...where a major discussion surrounding Federer's left arm ensued. Agreed.
We miss you Jenny and Aleks already!
