5. Zambelli Internationale (USA)
And the winner was the team from France - "Lacroix-Ruggieri"!!!
Have a look at a small part of the outstanding visual treat, they gifted us with.
Fireworks have always successfully brought out the child in me...The shrieks of joy and amusement when watching each of the new forms being displayed in the sky is something that evades the mental barriers formed as part of our "growing ages"...:)
This craze could very well be inherited from my dear Papa whom I have been seeing from my childhood chasing every chance to enjoy the fireworks display..:) Be it any nook or corner, if he gets a chance he would just go for it....and whenever could, I would also be taken with him to enjoy the thrill of it from even close distances.. :) When the "Big Bang" ones gets fired in the temple festivals, I remember pulling my papa's hands and running towards a safer distance when I was a small kid... :)
As the years have passed, the fireworks market have been growingly taken over by the Chinese products. But still, the mere excitement that even something as small as a "Poothiri" brings cannot be taken over by any of these sophisticated products...:)
This very blog is dedicated to all the fireworks lovers...!!!
Lets hope that sooner, new ways be discovered for the fireworks industry to flourish in a safe and more environment friendly manner!!
