Fire in the night sky

Warning: Turn your volume down to low before playing this video.

This is the view from my south/southeast facing balcony on Chinese New Year's Eve. The video doesn't really capture the horror of it all, but it's the best I can show you. This is by no means the most fireworks I have ever seen at one time. Yeah, it is even worse than this sometimes. I wish they would ban individual use of fireworks but apparently they are not going to do that in my lifetime.

Video from February 9, 2012. Time: 29 seconds.

Looking for cats

This post is an experiment. I haven't actually uploaded my own video to my blog before. This one is 25 seconds long of Mimi on one of her little walks downstairs inside the apartment complex grounds. If this video works, I might try to show you more snippets of life via video later on. Let me know if you have trouble viewing it.
