September 29. Day 273. Riverfire


Pretty much where ever you are in Australia this weekend it's party time. In Melbourne it's AFL grand final time. The West Coast is celebrating because the Eagles won. The rest of Australia is celebrating because Collingwood lost. Sydney has its festival of the boot with the NRL finals tomorrow . Good luck to all of them. I still hate football. Here in Brisbane we like the finer more refined things in life. We have just come to the end of a three week long celebration of theatre. And what's the best way to end the Brisbane Festival? With a bang, of course.
Riverfire may be environmentally irresponsible. It may make travelling around the city almost impossible. It doesn't matter.
It's a wonderful celebration.
It brings out the crowds and the best in people.
It looks amazing.
It makes people happy.
My family happily celebrated at my husband's office overlooking the Story Bridge.
Never have so many people been in the finance sector on a Saturday night. Fair enough too. I love the Story Bridge.
Tonight she was glowing. The whole city was.
