Busan Fireworks 2007 Part 3 Finale
Busan Fireworks 2007 Part 2
There were 80,000 fireworks in total according to one site. And over 1.3 million spectators were expected. At one point the music became soft, and as well the fireworks. I wish I had taken some still photos of the fireoworks, as there were so many at once, photos would have been perfect. But I was watching what I was seeing rather than trying to record good images.

Busan Fireworks 2007 Part 1
These are videos from the Busan Fireworks Festival 2007. It is the 3rd annual showing. The show lasted for an hour and was spectacular. I have never seen anything so beautiful. I went with my friend Misoog. There were many police officers who formed blockades on some of the roads that were too busy, so we had to make a few detours. Pain in the butt. However, these detours led us directly in front of the bridge, we got there JUST as the show started but we couldnt see much. Then we saw that there was a special area and wanted to know if we could still buy tickets for it. The guy near us said the tickets were free but that you had to get them online. Then the guy saw me and said that foreigners could go in, but not Misoog. So we go to the gateway and the guy sees me and we say in english we heard foreigners can go in without a ticket, and he says, yes. So we go into the special area and get to sit down.
