Around midnight, people were firing fireworks around the city. We briefly visited the marketplace – some flew horizontally and exploded in the crowd, but we didn’t see any injuries happening, and according to Kaleva’s web news no injuries caused by fireworks happened in Oulu. It’s also pretty hard to get photos of fireworks exploding in completety random directions. I only got about two photos, and they are really bad, but at least the quality of this year’s photos can only improve from now on. Here are the first two photos of the year:

This year also begins with all the flags in half mast, again because of the disaster in Asia.
