New Year's Eve 2006: Phu Quoc, Vietnam. We hung out at a beach front restaurant; ate their delicious buffet dinner; my ankles, feet and calves were eaten alive by mosquitoes or ants or something; drank too many gin and tonics, apparently, because I didn't even realize that I was eaten alive; and I left one of my favorite long sleeve t-shirts at the restaurant never to be seen again.
New Year's Eve 2007: Koh Phi Phi, Thailand. We just arrived. Fresh off the boat. And look... Jon shaved!
New Year's Eve 2008: Permuteran Beach, Bali, Indonesia. We spent the evening at our hotel with some friends from AES, eating seafood and watching/joining in a Balinese dance performance. But really the other dude in this video is more amusing than me...
New Year's Eve 2009: On an overnight train headed from Jaipur
to Udaipur, India. I was recovering from the worst food poisoning ever and my 24 hours spent in a Jaipur clinic. My 
family was recovering from a couple of days exploring India alone. Kathryn and Mom were hoping I'd participate in some wine drinking even though I was on antibiotics. And my Dad was loading up on EmergenC trying to fighting a cold. This all sounds depressing, but actually we laughed at all and enjoyed our evening train adventure. This is India.
New Year's Eve 2010: Vientienne, Laos. Becky, Jon and I just arrived, unloaded and found some Chimays just in time to celebrate the New Year. At midnight, we were in the middle of the road trying to find a happening spot.
New Year's Eve 2011: Bangkok, Thailand. We saw a movie (Tron), we bowled, we went to Ba
ngkok's version of Times Square, we toasted to a Beatles cover band in an Irish Pub, and we ended the evening with Thai foot massages :)
