New Years in Siberia
New Years is the big day here in Russia. Christmas passes without much celebration but New Years is a big broohaha. In some towns kids dress up like it Halloween and trick or treat. Christmas trees are called New Years trees and new years presents are exchanged. We had an office New Years Party on December 27. It was fun. We danced and I wore my new suit and tie.On the actual New Years eve, Trevor (man in blue next to me) and I drove to the rigs that were running over the holidays. We thanked our staff for working and being away from their families. We shared some New Years cheer and cake. Its a shitty thing to have to ask guys to work through the holidays. I know I don't like it. I wish I could have been home with my boys.
This is the nature of work. Doing things when you would rather not.
Regardless of work shedulesSome people did find time to celebrate the coming of 2007
Happy New Years
