As the above stated, I was only able to take photos of the fireworks. Why? Because I did not pay $1,000 Hkd (correct me if I am wrong), I am one of the many freeloaders hang around (near) Hong Kong Cultural Piazza trying to catch a glimpse of the opening.

The fireworks starts at 9.30 pm. I was there at 7 pm but many…many people were there since 5pm.

Obviously, many were disappointed. They could not hear a thing. There were no speakers on the FREE side. All you can see were some boat lighted with decoration and occasionally burst of fireworks.

I was lucky…I managed to squeeze as close to the piazza and that was the best spot for the fireworks (i think).
