here comes the sun! sort of

the village do went merrily enough, the music was better than expected, even some kolo and the Zorba number - we actually did what some might term to be dancing. after midnight champaigne and communal kissin, we walked back to the village centre to see the fireworks bravely performed mostly by the mayor personally, we went home and in bed by 2am. and yes, the sun really tried - over more snow - for hours we had both.
