Last night and this morning we celebrated the New Year with friends....the fireworks were indescribable....everywhere you looked there were huge explosions of color. The fireworks started at 7:30 and continued until the "real" fireworks at midnight. They went full "Blast" (ha ha) until 1:00am.

Our friend sent us a notice posted in their housing compound regarding fireworks... thought I would share it with you... this is exactly as printed...
