Fireworks and fried dough
The Fourth of July.
Camped out by the Hatchshell ready for Aerosmith and the 'Boston Pops' to strike up.
The fireworks were amazing: flowers, shapes, fountains, faces etc. with accompanying music (around 25 minutes of fireworks, final song Neil Diamond's 'America'). Obviously my photography doesn't do any justice. The fried dough is as nasty as it sounds... can I add it to the (very short) list of things on this earth that I consider inedible.
Fried dough -
Marks out of ten for tastiness: Zero
Ability to induce nostalgia in Americans: Two
Fun DIY food factor: One
Sugar and lard content: Stratospheric
Number the average Brit can eat in a sitting: None (one mouthful)
Update : I was commenting to a local that I was surprised that so few people had their own fireworks - turns out the sale/personal use of fireworks is prohibited in Massachusetts!
