Fireworks - Cuetes

Last night Michael and I drove down to Paul B. Johnson Park to watch
the 4th of July fireworks. The weather was great. There had been
thunderstorms in the afternoons this week. There was a chance it
would
rain but fortunately it didn't. Friday night was cool (mid eighties). Plus
there was a breeze from the lake. It was so nice.We sat near a pavilion
where some guys were grilling while some of their friends had a couple
of guitars and were singing. There were some college guys behind us,
soldiers from Camp Shelby, and many families. This section of the park
was by the lake, just across from the fireworks launching pad. We
had
brought our food and Michael and I had a little picnic. Once it got
dark, one could see the crescent moon in the sky. There were lots also
lots of stars.
A few minutes later the fireworks show started and it was
great. I took some pictures and recorded the end. We had fun.




Anoche fuimos al parque Paul B. Johnson a ver los cuetes para celebrar el Día de la Independencia. No hacía mucho calor y además había una rica brisa del lago. Nos sentamos cerca de una palapa donde unos chavos hacían carne asada y sus amigos cantaban y tocaban guitarra. Esta sección del parque estaba frente a dónde los técnicos iban a lanzar los cuetes. Trajimos nuesto itacate y nos comimos una torta y un chesco. Cuando se hizo de noche se veían muchísimas estrellas y la luna apenas se veía, era como una uña. Los fuegos artificiales estuvieron padrísimos. Tomé unas fotos y video -aquí les pongo la última parte del espectáculo. Nos divertimos mucho.
