Today I went with my roomie and another couple to the 花火大会 Fireworks Festival at Sapporo's 中島公園 Nakajima Park. The Japanese know how to do fireworks. You can buy them at convenience stores and light them in your backyard or in the road if you want. But sometimes they have the big ones for all to see, as was the case with this festival.

I wish we had fireworks more than twice a year, and in a more accessible location. Last time I went to Canada Day fireworks, they were downright pathetic in comparison.

I got some cool night shots of the park.
