Fireworks to ring in the new year

What better way to welcome the new year than with photos of fireworks? These are my favorites from the bunch of photos I took, although I think my photos last year were better.

Fireworks in paradise

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Welcoming the new year, island-style

Working in the tourism industry, you eventually accept that you’ll never be able to spend the holidays with your family and friends and learn to make the best of it by celebrating with your co-workers and guests. From a certain point of view, your co-workers and guests become your “family” of sorts.

Some photos from our New Year’s celebration on the island. May you all have an exciting and meaningful 2012 šŸ™‚

My wishes to you for 2012

Out of all the things that this man has ever written (and there are A LOT!), this has to be one of my favorites.

Happy New Year everyone!
