Happy New Year to All!

I hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas and a very HAPPY NEW YEAR. How did you see in the new year? Did you eat your twelve lucky grapes, as is tradition in Spain? Did you open presents, as is customary in Greece or did you throw a bucket of water off your balcony, as is traditional in Puerto Rico?

In many English speaking countries it is common to sing Auld Lang Syne when the clock has struck midnight. This is a song and poem that was written by the Scottish poet, Robert Burns.

You can check out a Kareoke Video of the song on Youtube.
