#13 Fireworks
This is a tricky one to find out. Local activity guides, the city website may be helpful but word of mouth is usually the best. Put the word out that you are looking for a fireworks show and I bet it wont be long before someone has the low-down on the next big one.
We get to hear them where we live as we are close to an amusement park and they let them loose every weekend throughout the summer. We are lucky enough to be able to get a decent view from the roof, but we are eager to go and see them in person.
Fireworks are awe-inspiring no matter how old you are or how many you’ve seen, and kids love them (unless they are really young then they might be scared). Leave the pets at home though otherwise you may be nursing a whimpering dog all night.
