We had dinner al fresco, with a light show, Hindu religious ceremony, music, traditional Rajasthani dancers, and lots of fireworks.
What fireworks! Earlier today, we noticed that peddlers were selling fireworks on every street corner. Whenever traffic stopped (which it frequently did), the vendors would rush out in the street and make a sale to a passing car. These were NOT "Safe and Sane" fireworks like we see in the U.S.. I think these were labeled "Dangerous and Crazy".
It sounds like we are in a war zone. Fireworks will probably be going all night. I imagine this is what Baghdad sounded like during "Shock and Awe" in 2003.
