Family, Fun & Fireworks

Once a year, the sleepy little town in which we live awakens in the light of it's own 'Heritage Festival'! This year, there were fireworks (as always), annual street dance, live music, tours, vendors, fire-eaters & aerial acrobats by the 'Aerial Angels'!
Free family fun for the whole weekend!

OOOhh, Aahhhh, Ooooos

The whole family goes down to the river for a picnic & to watch the fireworks display over the falls at dusk on Saturday nite!
Beautiful fireworks displays that delight everyone with colour & loud bangs n' pops!!!!

These are a few of the photos I took that nite.

The Aerial Angels: namely
'Spike' & 'Luna'
demonstrated acrobatics on the aerial silk & aerial hula hoop earlier that afternoon in the center of our downtown streets!
It was kind of a 'cirque de soliel' performance.

They also demonstrated the fine art of fire-eating & fire-passing from tongue to tongue!!!

'Spike' on the aerial silk.

Hubby was one of two men pulled by the two girls out from the audience to assist them with their tripod (which was blowing around due to the wind that day). This was a hard job for him. Heh. Yea right!
He described it as watching the strippers do their thang with their clothes on!
They definitely were flexable that is for damn sure!!!

Our children had front row seats for the performances.
They loved the show!

'Luna' on the aerial hula hoop -- with hubby watching on -- or, is it up? teehee.
After the show, the family had their photo taken with 'The Aerial Angels'!

Family time well spent, together!!
