Happy New Year, Trinidad and Tobago!

We are almost to our New Year's celebration!

The 11 o'clock bottle of Champagne has been opened!

Happy New Year, Argentina!

Almost to midnight eastern!

A couple of beers for a couple of dudes

Happy New Year, Uruguay!

Uruguay! I know nothing about you...but Happy New Year all the same!

Happy New Year, Greenland!

A land named because of trickery - with a population of 57,000 people. You always hold the honor of having the most distorted look on the Mercator Projection!

Happy New Year, Ireland!

Ah, the Emerald Isle...these folk know how to drink and are certainly celebrating right now! Here's some fine cognac even they would appreciate!

Happy New Year, Germany and Italy!

The two lands of my ancestors are celebrating the New Year as I write this! One day I will enjoy wine in Italy and beer in Germany...but for now:

Don switches it up to honor Germany

They don't just give those blue ribbons away, you know.

Happy New Year, Egypt!

Pyramids? Nah. Drinks! 5,000 years ago, the Pharaohs would enjoy beer in their religious practices. Tonight we drink to honor them...and, you know, to keep the streak alive.

Two more High Life bottles to add to the tally!

Happy New Year, Kenya!

Because, as we know, it's a marathon, not a sprint. And coffee, Kenya...it makes sense.

Mmm...good stuff

Happy New Year, United Arab Emriates!

Kinda weird toasting to a country that can't drink, but hey! We're all about being inclusive!

I'm kicking the Champagne - Don is having a Heady Topper. 

Happy New Year, Pakistan!

We're getting there! Joined by Ed and Amy!

Ed and Amy join us. Ed's drinking a mudslide - we're polishing off the champagne!

Happy New Year, Kazakhstan!

Happy New Year, Kazakhstan! Champagne of Beers of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan!!

Living the High Life on New Year's Eve!

Happy New Year, Thailand!

Another one of my favorite cuisines! I'm now at Don's, so just one picture!

Long Trail's Culmination...an amazing beer.

Happy New Year, China!

China - most of the world's population, none of which care about THIS New Year.

Don back to the Mimosas

While I go to some Disaronno

Happy New Year, Japan!

If I could only eat one cuisine for the rest of my life, it would probably be sushi. Japan, the Land of the Rising Sun!

Don went another way - Eastern Russia!

Don drinking to Eastern Russia

Kicking the bottle for Japan!

Happy New Year, Western Australia!

The western side of my favorite country that is also a continent!

Don moves on to the Mimosa...

Back to Champagne for the rest of Australia!

Happy New Year, Australia!

Australia, Australia, Australia, Australia,  we love you, AMEN!

Home to one of the greatest bands of all time - AC/DC!!

Don thought the Aussies would prefer beer

I went with coffee and Baileys

Happy New Year, Marshall Islands!

Marshall Islands - where the word "Atoll" gets used every day.

Don has started with Baileys and coffee

I'm having one more Mimosa

Happy New Year, New Zealand!

Every now and then I'll get an idea in my head that won't let go. This one's a doozy...

Don and I were joking around a few New Year's Eves ago that we should have a drink when the first NYE celebration takes place in the world and keep it going every hour on the hour for 24 hours. Basically celebrating with every time zone.

This year we decided to tackle it! Don did a little research, we set some rules (we're not bothering with some countries' time zone rules which are every 15 minutes), and here we go! So, at 6AM on Tuesday, December 31st EST, Don and I both say:

Happy New Year, New Zealand!

Looks like Don is going with a traditional Champagne drink

I chose to go with a Mimosa to start my day off
