Fireworks…… A year in Review

Fireworks…… A year in Review






This past weekend I went to see the fireworks and bonfires for Guy Fawkes Day.
And it was then when I realized that I have seen a lot of fireworks displays over the past year….so I give you my quick review.

It all starts with…

New Years Eve.. Sydney,

Australia Jan. 2005
Over Bridge and Opera House
Weather was perfect! My first NYE in a tank top!!! Loved It! Everyone was nice and happy! Sister and I had a great time and will always remember. We were over near Mrs. MacQuarries chair…lookout point.

It’s the largest crowd turn-out in world for New Years and one of the first places to bring in the New Year. I just loved this and tell everyone that if you are going to trek to Australia go for the New Year!

Fourth of July 2005….Cambridge/Boston MA
Over the Charles River
Nice weather…we were too tired to work to get a good view spot. So we were far away! It was nice to have my last fourth (for a while) set in the back-drop of the lovely city of Boston! Nice goodbye moment! Good company!
I did love the smiley face Firecrackers!!
The pics don’t do it justice!

Montréal International Fireworks Competition… July 30, 2005
La Ronde Amusement Park….
The final show by La Ronde the theme was The Big Bang Theory

Weather was nice! We had pre-order seats right up front! Fireworks set to music….and the music really made the show phenomenal. Lots of epic soundtrack scores. My favorite set was to the Jurassic Park theme music…..caused serious goose-bumps.

At moments you felt like the big bang was happening and the world was ending or aliens were attacking. GREAT Show!!!!





Guy Fawkes Day! November 2005, Cambridge UK
Midsummer’s Common
Weather was OK for here. Great use of colors!! Big Crowd…(didn’t realize that all of these people lived in or around Cambridge). I was just so excited to see fireworks in my new locale. I will try to recall these fireworks when there are NONE on the 4th of July here! ;)
