If you live in Calgary I am sure you have heard of the Globalfest International Fireworks Festival sponsored by Trico Homes but if you have never been you Need to!
I have always loved fireworks even as a little girl, I loved to sit and watch the sky light up with all the beautiful colors but nothing prepared me for my first trip to Globalfest! Not only did I see fireworks like I'd never seen before I saw shapes inside fireworks and all set to beautiful music. The fireworks dance in the nights sky reflecting off the beautiful lake water of Elliston Park.
The sounds and sights leave you amazed!

ReplyDeleteI love the excitement, and the colours of fireworks. I used to live not too far from where they put on the global fest fireworks, and I used to take the kids to watch them all the time. We haven't been in about 6 years now.
