Fireworks

Yesterday night there was a ceremony in Plaza de Armas; They were crowning the "Christmas Queen". We didn't watch that, but we came back at  9:30 to see the fireworks. they had made this big metal structure that had lots of spinning wheels and stuff that they set on fire. There was a fence around it, but it just kept the crowd about a meter away from the explosions. It was sending fireworks into the crowd and setting the stuff that fell off of it onto the ground on fire. At one point the S in one of the words didn't go off on time, and a guy had to climb up the flaming thing and light it on fire, but he didn't have time before it ended and the other fireworks started. After everything was over, the S exploded in flames and startled everyone around it. Dad thought it was extremely funny.
