Riverfire F-111 Dump & Burn for the (2nd) last time.....!!!


Fireworks lift off from the tops of buildings & from barge's on the river


More fireworks & the F-111 Dump & Burn streaking across the Brisbane sky.

Getting home after work was an issue...... once I had negotiated the masses of people on the stairs at Riverside I discovered that the queue for the ferry was so damn long plus 4 people wide. There was no way in hell I was going to get home before it started, so a phone call to Marty had him & our friend Elliott (who had joined us one more time before heading back to NZ) jumping in the car & doing a mercy dash before they closed off the bridges.

How lucky are we this time to be living in a prime location for viewing the fireworks?
Both Jo & EJ had missed it last year; they were both amazed as they had never seen anything like it. We thought baby Charlie may have been frightened by the noise, but she too enjoyed the pretty lights.

The F-111’s did their Dump & Burn & got the adrenaline pumping as before, what an awesome show.
We finished the night off by taking Elliott into the city for a....... shall we say ‘a send off’.......!!!
