 Taipei 101 Fireworks 2012
Happy New Year 2012!



















Taipei 101 fireworks got quite lucky this year. All previous days were rainy for almost two month in a row. December 31st 2011 was not too cold and only had a little rain during the day. We got the right spot with a completely open view of Taipei 101. There was a slight breeze coming from behind us which blew the smoke that was generated by the fireworks behind the Taipei 101 building.

 















 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


The lightning display lasted for about 3 to 4 minutes and was accompanied by another fireworks display.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



 

 

 

 

   

 





 

 

 

 

 

 

 






















The journey to Warner village was pretty smooth. Going back home (to Taipei main station area) was a disaster like every year. A few car-owners really don't get it. There are several hundred thousand scooters on the road and a few hundred cars are enough to block all the intersections since they cannot maneuver their vehicles safely in this chaos.
