Brisbane’s river festival goes of with a bang tonight. It’s time for

River Fire, a massive fireworks display more or less synchronised to

music. We are at Alf’s place, the lucky bugger has an apartment next to

the story bridge overlooking the river and all of down town Brisbane.

The firework was indeed spectacular. Starting with an F111 fighter plane

screaming overhead and with fireworks attached to the river bridges as

well as on various barges parked in the middle of the river then for the

climax two fighter planes doing a “dump and burn” where they burn off

excess fuel behind their craft.

A good time was definitely had by all and it was close to midnight

before I got home
