As is tradition in Peru, Igor, Iris and I brought in the New Year wearing new yellow undies. The undergarments are said to bring luck and prosperity to those who wear them as the clock rolls from one year into the next. I imagine millions of pairs of yellow underwear were sold in the last week. They could be found in heaps in carts, hanging on stands, and sprawled out on sidewalks throughout Peruvian cities.
We also dived under the table at midnight to gobble up 12 grapes. Each grape signifies luck to come each month.
We didn't burn an effigy as it is illegal in our city district, but throughout much of the city Donald Trump was the popular figure to be lit.
Happy 2017 to you from the three of us.
