What a surprise! In previous years, we were never able to get close to the final fireworks, but this year I discovered that the Lion Dancers "eat" firecrackers as they pop. The Lions chase the fuses up to the bar where they are tied. Because of the smoke and ash (!) I had to put the camrera away for a bit. It was a formidable feat of dance and martial arts. Worth risking the burning eyes if you ever get the chance to see it.
