Happy New Year 2007 (English)

2006 is history. 2007 has begun.

There is a lot to write about it, but I just upload my film of our new years celebration for now. We partied in front of Taipei 101 (the world tallest building, until they are finished with the new one in Shanghai) and then on the rooftop of Ashwin`s house.
The movie shows the fireworks coming from 101, the traffic after the estimated 500.000 visitors returned home and pictures from the Kraut (say: crowd) partying to welcome the new year!

Watch and enjoy:

Happy new year 2007

Frohes Neues Jahr 2007

Gelukig nieuw jaar 2007

Bonne année 2007

2007 新年快樂
