One of the craziest New Year's I've ever had. In the UK, when we have a firework display, the whole firework area is cordoned off, health and safety is the priority etc. Here, there were people letting off fireworks anywhere and everywhere.We arrived at the square and saw an open space in front of us. Being the tourists, we took a photo of ourselves to capture the evening. BANG! A firework was let off right behind us - we were standing where everyone was setting off the fireworks, doh!
At times it felt like a war zone and I was shielding my head most of the evening. One woman in front of us, a tourist of course, let off a rocket sideways instead of in the air, how it missed anyone I don't know.
Crazy, crazy, but great fun.
Not a bad picture to end my blog ... one final farewell post to come.
