Guy Fawkes Night


To celebrate the failed attempt to upsurp the parliament, London celebrates Guy Fawkes Night with bonfires and fireworks. Similar to last year, I went to Battersea park for my dose of culture. Unlike the previous year, I got my ticket in advance.

Bonfire!


Fireworks!

As usual, the events did not start promptly and the crowds grew impatient. For this year, there were nothing much fantastic. Of all the fireworks display, I liked the one which burst into the sky and swarmed about like fireflies. That be said, it's still a magical experience to be under a sky of pseudo shooting stars.
