Christmas time=fireworks!

At midnight on Christmas Eve aka twelve AM Christmas morning fireworks go off in every town, village, city etc in Latin America. The sky of Guatemala City was lit by more fireworks than I've ever seen on any 4th of July or New Years Eve in the US. I think everyone should have to experience a Latin American Christmas sometime in their lifetime! It is quite unbelievable!!!

What a fascinating celebration. Isn't that a great way to celebrate the birth of our savior? Hope you had a Merry Christmas and best wishes to you for a wonderful new year.
