so we set up camp on the wall at rooms on the beach...the fireworks started at midnight...it was a decent display...where i am from, we see fireworks alot...and some fabulous displays...i was more impressed with the chinese lanterns...they were lighting the sky all night....never saw anything like that...i bet there were 10000 set off over the night...constant from about 8pm on through 1am or so...I was told on facebook that they were bad for the wild life...lol...my reply was that it seem very good for the WILD life i saw on the beach...everyone was having so much fun....(didnt feel the need to tell her we are very much animal lovers, bring 5-8 lbs of dog and cat food every trip for the strays, and paid extra to make sure our lanterns were biodegradable....)

we walk back toward the house...traffic is at standstill, maybe a snails pace...we notice this one car, it is slowly rolling beside us, but we are pulling away as we walk...lol...i stop and grab us 4 fried egg and frankfurter sandwiches and a half of chicken to share from the guy in front of Las Vegas, which looks to be closed...there was activity there in november, but none these 2 weeks...as we walk into pure gardens, after waiting for my sandwiches to cook, tha car we were racing just now passes by...lol...we grub down, and janet and i walk back to travellers...boourbon beach for a nightcap, where we run into cindyrella again...
