stinky fish and fireworks
My husband and I walked down to Pier 39 to watch the fireworks tonight. It's the first time we've seen them in San Francisco, and they were absolutely phenomenal. I don't normally get all jazzed about a fireworks display, but my gosh they were just really cool. It helped that we were in a place away from the musical accompaniment. For the first time since I became a teenager, I actually felt that little magical feeling you get when you're seeing fireworks as a kid.
I stood at the waterfront; watching them explode and sparkle with a small smile when a little girl behind me whispered lightly to her mother, “look at all those fairies running across the bay.” It was beautiful and we were all young.
BUT, it smelled really bad. The fishy smell was kickin’ tonight.
Happy 4th y’all!
