Tokyo Bay Summer Fireworks Festival 2007

BEST.FIREWORKS.EVER!
I’ve just experienced the best fireworks display that I’ve seen so far! It’s summer in Tokyo and hence, to celebrate; fireworks display are held all over Tokyo throughout the entire month of August.

I went to Tokyo Bay to join the 20th Tokyo Bay Fireworks Festival or in short - “Hanabi” (literally means fireworks in Japanese). Now, before I got there… I’ve got a pretty good idea that it’s going to be a good show… I found out that there’s going to be 12,000 displays of fireworks over a period of 80 minutes from the information that I obtained from the website… but I never expected it to be this spectacular!

Well… I can’t really describe it much… so, here’s some pics and a few minutes of videos that I took. I’m so glad that I bought a digital camera… would have so regretted it if I was there and didn’t manage to take any pics at all…

Alright then; pictures and videos after the jump… ;)
