The Grand Illumination

Every year a few weeks before Christmas, Colonial Williamsburg has an event called the Grand Illumination. It kicks off the holiday season here. They set off a big fireworks display and hundreds of people show up to watch.

So last Sunday we took our chairs and walked out to a good spot to wait, in the cold, for the fireworks to start. Mac, Valerie, Flat Brandon and me.
Pretty colors...



If you click on the pic below you can see the Governor's Palace in the background.

It lasted about 20 minutes, but here's a clip that's just over 1 minute long. Awesome!
