Germany                        Stuttgart                28 December 2024


   For the first time in a while, I've ventured to the western part of
   Germany, to Stuttgart, to spend quality time with friends and
   celebrate New Year's together.  I spent my first Christmas here in
   Berlin, so I wanted something different for New Year's.

   Interestingly, this holiday here is called by the peculiar name
   "Silvester," after Pope Sylvester I.  Instead of "Happy New Year,"
   people here say "Guten Rutsch," which literally translates to "good
   slide," suggesting one slides into the new year.
