New Years Eve -- Hawaiian Style

This was taken from my backyard just before sunset.




These are some of the firecrackers we played. They are not the "real thing" but a wonderful invention that we have come to enjoy. These sound almost like the real firecrackers, but less rubbish to clean up afterwards.

These are various novelty fountains my son enjoyed lighting. They emit sparks, they make loud ear busting noises and plenty of smoke.





Some of these fountains last for about 2 minutes.

In Hawaii we are allowed to purchase novelty fireworks and play them safely. Real firecrackers can also be purchased but inorder to do so, one must obtain a permit which allows you to purchase 5000 firecrackers. Each permit cost $25.00. It can get costly if you want to play more than 5000 firecrackers.
