I finally got the chance to go to Boston for their Fireworks Spectacular! It was well worth the trip (and the wait). We got there early to get good parking and to get our wristbands. Once we saved our spot, we'd go for walkabouts in Boston for some sightseeing and meals (and the all-important bathroom trips) Here's a shot of the Storrow Lagoon while waiting in line to get into the Hatch Shell. This was before 9 AM so most of the spectators haven't arrived yet. It was estimated that half a million people were in attendance.

One last look at the stage as we exited
Confetti

Neil Diamond sang 3 songs, but the song nearest and dearest to Bostonians is the ultimate sing-along song 'Sweet Caroline'. We even did an encore during the commercial break.
