| Dazzling fireworks from Mexico this evening |
The annual Celebration of Light has returned to Vancouver where different countries compete in showing off their best pyrotechnics in the sky.
Tens of thousands gathered at English Bay early to grab a spot and watch the sunset before the fireworks began at 10pm.
There were tons of people, as the Chinese expression goes, 人山人海, basically meaning "people everywhere". There were several food trucks lined up next to each other, and each one having a queue of hungry customers for hotdogs, popcorn, Thai food, and tacos.
We are lucky to have an amazing view of the dazzling spectacle, though we too had to arrive early before the roads were closed off to traffic.
While the half-hour show wasn't as full-on as Australia's was, there were lots of interesting shapes and colours as well as a variety of fireworks on display from Mexico.
Closing off the event on Saturday is the Philippines, making its debut this year.
