Hey Michel - Fireworks are also on two Wednesdays.

  Are you going Lise?  We might go to one on a Saturday but definitely not a Wednesday.

If you don't mind getting home at around midnight..... I remember skytrains were packed.  I usually start walking a few minutes before the show is over to jump the gun.

I don't know. It's hard to go with two young kids tho I really want to. I might call my friend who lives in Burnaby but faces downtown. Her apartment is high enough that we can see the fireworks. I just wished it wasn't so late. Like way, way past their bedtime.

  Michel, [A href="http://www.celebration-of-light.com/"]Celebration of Light[/A] goes for four days. Looks like China will be participating - they usually put on an excellent show.   [H3]2008 Schedule[/H3] [UL] [LI][A href="http://www.celebration-of-light.com/Competition/Canada.php"][SPAN class=date]July 23     [/SPAN]Canada[/A] [/LI] [LI][A href="http://www.celebration-of-light.com/Competition/USA.php"][SPAN class=date]July 26     [/SPAN]USA[/A] [/LI] [LI][A href="http://www.celebration-of-light.com/Competition/China.php"][SPAN class=date]July 30     [/SPAN]China[/A] [/LI] [LI][A href="http://www.celebration-of-light.com/Competition/Grande-Finale.php"][SPAN class=date]Aug 2       [/SPAN]Finale[/A] [/LI][/UL]

lol

I haven't been to the fireworks downtown for about 15yrs, as I've become more claustrophobic in crowds.  But my parents moved downtown this year, so that makes it easier.

  My, the citizens of the country Finale must be proud.  They do a grand performance every time!!!!

I guess the Godzilla theme worked well for them?

  I heard that it was excellent as well.

US Fireworks were simply amazing.  Great music, excellent variety of fireworks, superb use of smoke effects.
