Had a nice New Years Eve Dinner with some colleagues, drank a bit, went to some party, drank some more bits, went back to the office to watch the fireworks (the balcony on the top gives you a fantastic panorama view over big parts of Reykjavik) with colleagues and went home after 1 1/2 hours, it was very enjoyable. 
Fireworks were crazy, I mean like crazy CRAZY. It was going on and on and on and then even further on. They were still shooting rockets into the sky five hours after midnight. All the rockets caused massive clouds of fog and mist that the sight was limited to 200m maybe, flashes from very bright explosions were visible up to maybe 400m, but just barely. Even when some wind came up the mist didn't clear as the firework just went on and on. Those Icelanders surely know how to properly blow up serious stuff.

This is the first time I've experienced new years in Reykjavik sober. It was quite interesting.
Went to the office to have some good food(Props to Nullarbor for the cooking). Fireworks in Iceland start around noon, goes into the evening, brief pause around 11PM until 11.30PM where it really kicks in. Then goes nuts at midnight.
Otherwise just hang out with fellow CCPers and had a merry time. Was A+++++ would do again.  Associate QA Tester for Team EVESec. |

I'm pretty sure it was lamb and roastbeef on a bed of crunchions. And icecream with really awesome caramel sauce for desert. Was pretty good  Associate QA Tester for Team EVESec. |
