They cut through 2 feet of ice to make an opening. The air was so cold that the surface of the water kept refreezing before the event got started. I'm taking a far more, um, sluggish approach to the new year. Have a great 2014!

I don't think I would enjoy that kind of shock and trying to get warm when coming out of the cold water would not be fun either. I am all about fun as I get older. I want fun in my life. I am looking forward to what is presented to me in this coming year. 2014 sounds like an excellent year to me. I know I am starting out in fine fare with my trip to spend time with my son and daughter-in-law. Will leave Jan 6. I hope this year brings you new adventures too, DJan and good health and lots of love.

I have never done it before and probably never will again. I'm trying to decide what time I need to leave so I don't have to stand around too long but I am reasonably close enough to see them. I'll let you know the outcome. One thing's for sure I won't be jumping in any fountains to celebrate let alone going in any expanse of cold water!Fun60https://www.blogger.com/profile/08084441984556826917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-87983395344572809282013-12-31T09:57:16.408-08:002013-12-31T09:57:16.408-08:00We swim in cold water here anyway, which is usuall...We swim in cold water here anyway, which is usually 38 - 40 and a bit warmer in summer anyway, but its just the thought of "barin' down n jumpin' or runnin' in and then dealing with the temps afterwards round aboot you. Never tried it, but they do have it here too. Will take photos, but not getting wet. We follow the fireworks via internet or TV and have surf n turf n such.
