4th of July Celebrations




I know it's a bit belated but I've only just gotten round to "tweaking" the pics we took and uploading the videos of the fireworks.

Well it was that time of year again, time for the annual 4th of July celebrations over at the Terror Club. Food as usual was great. There was food from the Terror Club, Outback Restaurant, Jerry's BBQ, Michaelanglo's, Ben & Jerry, Canadian Pizza (something not quite right there lol) and one or two other stores and of course beer from Brewerkz.

It all started at 3 pm and the weather was great (thankfully the weather man was wrong - he predicted thunderstorms but not a drop in sight or a thunder roar to be heard). It was nice and sunny with a nice breeze and extremely low humidity!

Lien and I got there first at about 4 pm but we didn't have to wait long for Yass and the others to show up. After getting some opened up cartons to use as a mat, we got some grub!! Purposely had a late breakfast and no lunch to enjoy the good eats. Fireworks started late at about 8 pm but lasted an enjoyable 20 minutes. After the fireworks were done, Lien, Yass and I went up to the terrace at the Terror Club to enjoy the band while the others headed on home.

Here are some links of vids I took. Don't worry they're all really short:

There were 2 bands playing, the first one, which was a mix of expats and locals, was ok but one of the girls singing had a tendency to shout into the mike...I guess she thought shouting meant she had a very powerful voice...eh no!!! The second band, which were all expats, was really good though. A really good rock band. The guys and I finally left at about midnight even though the band was going to play till 2 am.
