New Years Eve 2004, Copenhagen

Our party was at Klaus and Zorana's place, which was fortunately big enough to hold everybody. These shots are in more or less chronological order, and I've tried to name everybody at least once. This was my first New Years in Denmark, so I didn't really know what to expect... something tame I suppose. While the party may not have been as strange as 2002 (dancing to techno music with a few thousand party kids in the catacombs under an Austro-Hungarian fortress overlooking Budapest), it was just what I needed. Copenhagen went off too—I had no idea the Danes were serious fireworks collectors. When midnight hit, the sky was blazing from horizon to horizon with colored flashes—lighting up the undercast in blue, red and green. Really beautiful. Thanks for the fun, everybody. This is going to be a big year, and re-connecting with friends was a good way to start it. Prep work. Maguro maki. I'd wanted to make nigiri but I can never quite get them to look right. Finished product. Food is good. These will be needed. Klaus & Peter. Anne and Cecilie, starting the fest. Peter & Dana. Dana & Cristian. Djordje & Zorana. Steen and the ladies. Klaus & Zorana.
