Fireworks

I've been meaning to post this for a while... Serge, Nick, Fernando and I scored front row seats to the 4th of July fireworks show because of our auspicious affiliation with the MIT sailing club. (the week before we rented a couple of boats and sailed around the Charles River; that made us bona-fide sailors and gave us the privilege to view the fireworks from the sailing club dock).
The fireworks were launched from a barge right in front of us. Not only did we see the fireworks in all their splendor, we also felt them; every explosion sending shockwaves through our bodies moments after it spectacularly unfolded in the skies.
