Depended on the night, but I'd return from a crazy-making day sorting through piles of things and then I'd be in my room, trying to get warm. Then a huge bang would happen, music started up, and right outside on the balcony I caught some fireworks (not well, but hell, it was fun to see something so colorful and festive--you could hear in the distance the cheers and joy).
I love fireworks shots.
