Last night, the fair citizens of Wellington were treated to a fantastic fireworks display, all in honour of that bloke who attempted to blow up the English Parliament nearly four hundred years ago. One of the nice things about living on the fourth floor of a Mt Victoria flat block is that you get great views down to the harbour and that, my friends, was where it was all happening:

The whole thing was pretty well done really ... bang on nine o'clock, a helicopter swept round the Mount and into view, towing a big glowing pyrotechnic halo as it did so. Then the main show kicked off and lasted a good fifteen minutes, with a soundtrack being simulcast on a few of the local radio stations. Synchronicity is indeed a marvellous thing. Oh, and I managed to take a quick clip (300K) of the thing too so you can have look-see for yourselves.
