Mysterious Fireworks


Either someone is celebrating the Fourth of July really late or ridiculously early. Inquiring minds (well, okay, mine) want to know.

Last night my beloved and I were on the Q train to Brooklyn, headed for a party. Just as the train was screeching over the Manhattan bridge, we looked out the window and saw a beautiful display of fireworks bursting from behind the glowing skyscrapers. They were clearly coming either from the harbor or the Hudson River or somewhere in New Jersey. Either way, they were gorgeous, a veritable collage of color -- red, green, blue, purple, white, you name it. It was quite the show.

This morning I've been scouring the web, going to various news sites, trying to find out why there were these fireworks. Nothing. Found nothing. Usually a big fireworks display over the city is a newsworthy event but this one seems not to have been. It's a big mystery (at least to me).

So if anyone knows anything more about this, please let Mr NYC know!
