Fireworks Galore!!!!







Just in case you were wondering, last night's fireworks display was awesome. There were several ones that I've never seen before, and even though it was a bit short, I enjoyed myself a lot. There were a few mishaps, however. One of the fireworks caught fire, a few went sideways and almost hit us, and another that we had lit earlier in the day just randomly went off. But, at least for me, that added to the excitement of it all. Instead of shooting them off down the street, as we usually do, we decided to shoot them at the end of the peninisula. I believe the resoning for that was so that not as much would need to be picked up and they wouldn't land on other houses. Though they were a lot closer and we were in more danger of being hit, I found it cool that it seemed that they were shooting off right over our head, that we were in the thick of the action. You can't really see that in the videos, but in person, it was pretty cool. I think that my favorite firework was called "the peacock," which, as the name suggests, shot fireworks out in a triangular way, just like the feathers of a peacock. Unfortunatly, I did not manage to get a video of that particular firework. I thought I was recording, but apparently, I wasn't pushinng hard enough down on the button, and the video didn't even start recording. I'm sure that these videos and pictures will make up for it, though. Enjoy!
