so THAT's why the fireworks are illegal here
MY goodness. Happy new year everyone!
00.24, and it's the new year of the dog - my brother's year, which i guess make's him 24 this year then. Shanghai turned into a warzone for the last 35 minutes, and it's still crackling away.
From about 11.55 to 12.20, it was unbelieveable. Mayhem. Not like the carefully orchestrated oohs and aahs that comes with an organised fireworks party, no this is 20 or 30 different groups of people letting off fireworks in different parts of town at the same time.
It's a great view from where we are, but I imagine pretty much any building with a view is going to get a great show. It seems Everyone Everywhere is letting off fireworks.
I totally recommend coming here for this firework show - and I must try to get my hands on a box for myself next year!!!
