О, спасибо огромное! Да, уж, сюжет у Вашего внука раюботает отлично!) Привет ему и отдельное спасибо!
Прочитали с внуком эту историю, и он аж загорелся основную сказку перечитать. Прочитал и выдал: «Да, уж… Белая — правильная Герда, покруче старой. Наверное, первая Герда и есть та бабуля в Антарктиде…»
Как вам такой сюжет, уважаемый автор?))
От внука особое спасибо за чудесную фантастику. Ему 8 лет, кстати)

New Year's Eve! It is the most favorite holiday for both children and adults. The most vivid impressions of this holiday  we, of course, get in childhood. Well, for us, adults, it is rather another reason to meet in the family circle, socialize with friends.

New Year's Eve I like to meet at home. This year, my son warned me that he was celebrating New Year's Eve with friends. What can you do, kids are growing up and won't always be around. So New Year's Eve did not portend anything unusual. But literally on the thirtieth of the thirtieth, my cousin Katya calls me. In my childhood we lived in the same village, and then I went to the city to study, and stayed that way. And Katusha did not change our village to the city bustle.

So, invited my sister to the village to celebrate the New Year. I heartily thanked, but did not give a firm answer, decided to think. What can be interesting in the village, what I have not seen there? I've been a city dweller for a long time now, and I don't really understand the village way of life. But I decided: if my sister invited me, I should agree. After all, we are relatives, and we haven't seen each other for a long time. I also invited my friend with me. We got in the car and rushed to the village, towards the unknown! And here we are already on the spot, in our native village! From the very first minutes we felt the holiday approaching!   In the yard stood a huge fluffy Christmas tree decorated with unusual toys. As a decoration on the tree hung kitchen utensils: whisk, cups, spoons, forks, jars and much more. My friend and I as soon as we saw such an interesting one, we immediately rolled with laughter! This is not just a fir tree, but a hostess fir tree!

Further and even more fun! As soon as we entered the house, we were surrounded by an atmosphere of festivity and fun! All the family members were in carnival costumes. Not only that, my sister had prepared outfits for us too. Right from the doorstep she shouted: "Change your clothes!" We, of course, did not interfere - and ran to the room to reincarnate! And out of the room came two sausages! I looked at my friend and laughed so hard, I almost burst. And she looked at me and laughed! And my sister is already bringing mead of her own making! As soon as we had a cup, we were dancing.

And the guests kept arriving. The time until midnight flew by like an instant. And we at the table rather ... My sister did her best. The table was bursting with treats!   She is a great hostess, and the guests - each with his own dish! And after the chimes and champagne, everyone poured out into the yard. That's when the real fun with snowballs and music began. The atmosphere of the holiday reigned all around - on children's faces, on adults' faces!  

And the finale of our celebration was horseback riding in a cart accompanied by an accordionist.

For a long time we were impressed by this mass jocularity and fun. As it turned out, in the village people can not only work, but also have fun from the heart, you can say to the fullest. And hot drinks were only as a "small addition" to the excellent mood!

Действительно в деревнях отмечают Новый год с так называемым размахом. Ходят друг к другу в гости, веселятся. А в городе в лучшем случае в полночь выйдут на улицу фейерверк посмотреть.
