Ringing in the New Year with my host family! Festivities included,
yellow underwear, champagne, grapes, a New Years feast, fireworks, and time with the family!
 |
| Important to any Peruvian NYE, yellow colored clothing is supposed to bring good luck in the New Year! Yellow
underwear is especially lucky so at midnight you run, put on your
underwear and return to the dinner table. |
 |
| On top of this, at midnight you eat 12 grapes (6 white and 6 red) and make 12 wishes for the upcoming year! |
