    Hello! I was really overweight, embarrassed of my photo! Well left hotel for New Years with Chinese on a regular street! 1st photo is street and blue jacket that was soon to be on fire and melting and I burned my left hand! haha 2nd photo is sparklers young girls gave me! Some were about three feet long! 3rd photo Chinese girl or one of them that started my blue jacket on fire! 4th photo is sparkler she was using. I dropped to ground and rolled, my pants became really dirty and jacket, the sleeves were burnt off. Then a young boy came up to me with a firecracker about 6 inches long with short fuse. He lit it and threw it towards the street. Boom went off instantly and it was louder than artillery in Vietnam! My ears were done for a day or so. funny I stopped for dinner on way back to Hotel and waiter took what was left of my coat and hung it on a coat rack with wheels and beautiful gold material, he never smiled or anything and pieces of my jacket were still falling off! Then back to Hotel, I was on about the 11th floor with glass wall and watched fireworks in safety with the refrigerator bar in my room. Don
