River Festival - Riverfire!

I just can't help congratulating myself on choosing the right place to study. It's so much fun and there are so many things to see in Brisbane. Just 2 weeks ago, there's EKKA and now, there's the River Festival. Fireworks! 30 minutes of non-stop fireworks! It's much more spectacular than those at Esplanade and here, they really spare no expenses. The fireworks was not only at one spot but the whole stretch of the river. There were fireworks sprouting out of the top of the CBD buildings too. It's even better than the symphony of lights in Hong Kong!

We were so lucky. The fireworks start the minute we got out of the bus. We nearly couldn't make it as we did not know the ferries stop working at 6pm so had to take bus instead.


My favourite type of fireworks!



I actually took some more photos and a couple of videos too but the videos were too big to upload and the other photos were too blur.


That bright spot there is neither a street light nor an UFO. It's part of the fireworks and something which I had never seen before. It looks like a small bunch of fire flying horizontally across the sky.

While watching the fireworks, I couldn't help thinking of my fireworks buddies. Wish you all were here to share the spectacular sights with me...
