It was bigger than last year (though last year's fire was impressive).

CNN showed the fireworks from most major cities around the world and Sydney and Hong Kong was imo by far the best ones.

And let's not forget the countless 'inner city' displays of pyrotechnics. While illegal as hell, they often put on a pretty good show (from a safe viewing distance miles away).

I thought that London was very good, but for me, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai was best in show. Absolutely breathtaking.

Sorry Mario, I had trouble with images on the iPhone 7. Try a new thread to get more visibility from the Apple geeks.
