Symphony of Fireworks

Some of you may know about the Symphony of Fire(works) that happens every year in Vancouver.  There is an international fireworks competition that takes place over 2 weeks (four shows).  The fireworks are amazing and last about 25 minutes.

We really wanted to bring Ryan to the final night of the fireworks (China was the country putting them on this night).  The only problem was that the fireworks only took place after dark, and for Vancouver that means a little after 10pm.    We rearranged Ryan’s nap schedule and encouraged him to stay up for the fireworks.

Well, he did stay up and actually really enjoyed them.  After about 10 minutes he kept talking about going home, so I guess he was getting a bit bored but the fireworks kept getting more and more exciting.  We did end up staying until the end.

We didn’t get any photos of the fireworks but got some nice shots of us before the fireworks at the park as we were trying to find the best vantage point.
