江東花火大会 / Fireworks

今夜は荒川で開催された江東花火大会へ。始まる前から遠くのほうで雷が落ちまくっていて、だんだん近づいてくるなぁと思っていたら、花火開始とともに雨が・・・。最悪のタイミング。でも花火って雨でも消えないみたいで、傘をさしてしっかり見ました。
川をはさんで向こう側に首都高も見えて、中々良い眺め。しかも荒川沿いってけっこう広くて、座る場所もいっぱいあり気に入りました。来年は晴れるといいなぁ。

I went to see the fireworks on the banks of Arakawa river. I could see a lot of lightning in the distance and it was coming towards us. And it started raining just after the fireworks had begun. But the fireworks don't get affected by rain so I could see it holding umbrella.
Arakawa has good view of the river and the Shuto expressway. And banks are wide so there are plenty of spaces to sit down. I really liked it so will go back next year.
