Fireworks Fun

I keep trying to post a short video here but the 'video link' appears to be gone from my toolbar.  Anyone know how to get it back? 

This past Saturday night was Chinese New Year's Eve, the Year of the Tiger. This celebration is unlike any other-- among other things, ear-splitting fireworks that go ON and ON and ON for DAY after DAY after DAY.  All types of fireworks are available to the general public and there are no restrictions in our part of town.

On Saturday night we did sparklers and other 'small time' fireworks near our house, but there were plenty of the big league kind to enjoy!

The noise really kicked up by about 11:45, and Kathryn woke up and came into the bedroom.  Jim, K & I enjoyed a very sweet hour wrapped up in a blanket together by the window sill, watching the display.  It truly felt like the greatest show on earth!

If I can get the video clip up, you'll see what I mean!
