Venetian Night

On Saturday a couple of friends and I went down to the harbour to watch boats decked out with lights and props sail around the harbour. Quite a few other Chicagoans were there and according to estimates - some 600,000 of them. Well, it didn't seem like that quite that many people but you just never know.

The best part was the flyover of several planes, not quite the Red Arrows legends of the world but they managed to keep in formation nonetheless, quite gladly too. The fireworks were also pretty good and presumably, very expensive, this show went on for about half an hour!
