When we moved here in 2009 as seasonal residents in the winter, we embraced the Villages lifestyle and understood that seniors do things differently sometimes. Not hanging out until midnight on New Year's Eve was one of those things and we were on board with that. I never did like being on the roads after midnight on New Year's night. You take your life in your hands and I think it is no different here. Happy to celebrate before midnight. We stay home and watch on TV and have done that for many years.
One year, we did stay awake until midnight and long after that too. We were in Las Vegas in 2000 and celebrated the new year on the main strip. It was fun and I will always remember that experience.
