Canada Day 2011

Finally learned to play dominoes today.

Now I'm watching fireworks from my window. Not a professional display - I'd have to be on the other side of the building to see that - but a lot of people setting off their own in the Lakeshore park (plus a few that seem to be coming from the terraces and balconies of high-rises). mostly just roman candles, with the occasional starburst shell, but someone at the end of the spit has a few of those white ones that travel in corkscrew trajectories.

The bats must be nonplussed.

I remember from my time there that the Taiwanese are absolutely firecracker mad! Our whole Canada Day tonnage would be what they send up on a typical Saturday night. Chinese New Year is like being in London during the blitz - only prettier!
