Golden week
The National Day Golden week started on 29th Sep. We were regularly greeted by thunderous rumblings at 8 o'clock sharp.
When Suzhou celebrates, they spare no expense on fireworks and water/light laser displays...and they had this 3 days in a row! I remember in Singapore, one fireworks display for National Day was already quite an event.
It is quite a privilege, I think, to have a bird's eye view of the performances. After all, thousands of people fight jams and crowds simply to have a glimpse of it. Just look at the snaking traffic/people jams...
For us though, the novelty wears off and it's back to DVDs. Here're the boys (young and old) munching on their potato chips transfixed on their "Ironman" movie...
