Happy New Year: 2009 on the Ocean Odyssey

Yay! It's a start to a whole new year, and the celebrations were big everywhere. Above you'll see a photo of New York City's Time Square right after the ball had descended. Out here on the Ocean Odyssey, though local time we are on US CST, all of our software runs on GMT. So we celebrated both New Years.

Here below is a grouping of images from our celebrations here on the boat. We had a great time both on the eve of the holiday, as well as New Years itself. Nothing spectacular, no flare gun fireworks, and sadly, no cheap flute glasses filled with 0.5% red wine bubbled up with Diet 7Up. But we had some great food!
