Riverfest '07

Riverfestival is the most interesting and looked-forward even of the year in Brisbane. Although the festival usually lasted for a week but the highlight of the festival was the Riverfire. Half an hour of spectacular fireworks decorated the sky. This was my 3rd time going to the event, but I will make it an yearly event (although only 1 year left =().
RAAF F111 marked the beginning of the festival and make a reappearance at the end as a finale to the fireworks. It was interesting to see people trying to guess which direction it would come from but as this time was the 10th anniversary of Brisbane Riverfestival, two RAAF showed up, one from each direction.

And the craziest thingy was that we decided to walk back because the crowd at the bus stop was just so scary. So, we started walking along the Brisbane river. It would take one hour an half to two hours to walk all the way back to St Lucia. But half way through, some decided to take a half time break and going for coffee, some continued walking to a friend's place for drinks and I decided to go home. No need to make decision to follow which half of the group, going my own way, taking a bus home. Hehe, no walking. That was the highlight of the weekend.
