the fireworks at the dam - 10:03 AM
(filed under 'general')
we went to see the fireworks last night. we didn't actually make it to the dam in time to see them from there, because we thought they would be later in the evening than they were.
we ended up stopping at the side of the road about five minutes drive before the actual dam, so that we could watch them. we got out of the car & stood there holding smiley, looking & listening.
he seemed to quite like them. if we were closer he may have been scared of the noise, but i suspect not. i'm glad we got out of the car, because if i'd kept driving, we would have been around the other side of the hill & wouldn't have seen a thing.
after we watched them, shroom said we should just turn around & go home because it would all be over, but i actually wanted to go in anyway to see if anything else was going on. we did start driving home, but i was really disappointed to not see anything, even if there was going to be nothing to see, if you know what i mean.
after driving back toward home for a few minutes he realised how much i really wanted to go there & we turned around again & headed all the way to the dam.
i'm glad we did, because there was still stuff going on. there was a live band & there was still some food. we sat on the grass in front of the band & ate our burgers & then i took smiley up to the front of the band where there were some kids dancing & we danced together.
he got bored after a bit & wanted to wander around, so i followed him around the side & back of the big truck on which the band was performing. he enjoyed waondering around like that.
we didn't stay for all that long, but i glad we turned around to come back. it was nice. it was actually bigger than we expected & there were quite a number of people there. we did pass lots of people leaving when we headed there once the fireworks were over, so it must have been quite busy before they all left.
