Miami Beach 4th of July

I really wanted to go down and enjoy some of the 4th of July festivities.  Farley really didn't want to go, but I talked him into it.  They said that the fireworks were suppose to start at 8:00, which seemed early to me, but we headed to the boardwalk.  Here is a picture of the beach at 8:00pm.

 We decided to keep walking south, because the festivities were suppose to be at 8th and Ocean.  We walked down to 14th and Ocean and waited there for a while.  Below is a picture of Ocean drive from the beach entry at 14th street.

Farley seemed ready to go home, but then the fireworks began.  They were put to music, but we didn't have an FM radio to hear the classical music that the fireworks were dancing to.

is a picture with the camera in a different setting so you can see the palm trees and people.

Towards the end of the City of  Miami Beach fireworks presentation, we could see the City of Miami fireworks in the background.  It was amazing.  There were fireworks all over the sky.  Unfortunately, I couldn't get a picture quickly enough for you to see the amazing fireworks everywhere.  Farley and I took our time walking home.  There were tons of people on the beach setting off their own fireworks.  Here is a picture  from the boardwalk looking south with some fireworks people were setting off.

The final two pictures were of the boardwalk right at 26th.  There were tons of people right outside our apartment setting off fireworks.  It was beautiful.
