I was a bit restless on Monday night, thanks to a long and busy day at school. For some reason I remembered the fireworks I'd given to Kazu as part of his birthday present the day before, and decided that I wanted to play with some! Playing with fireworks alone is awesome (especially since it's illegal in Australia but fine here) but it's always better with other people, so I sent Yoko a message to see if she was interested. She was free, so she came and picked me up at 8pm and we zoomed down to a beach just on the other side of Ako Misaki. I'd never set off fireworks before so got Yoko to show me the ropes just in case they were crazy dangerous, but it was all pretty simple. They were really colourful and although they sat on the ground and only shot flames about a metre into the air, it was really enjoyable.

I really want to play with fireworks again, so I went and bought myself a massive backpack full of fireworks recently (5,000 yen!). Guess I'm pretty much set for the summer (or one night, depending, haha). I'm saving them for a Minato-ya crew beach BBQ we're going to do soon, though. Should be sweet.
