Sizzling show



The flames that shot out of the chimney stacks lining the boardwalk by the river, as mentioned in the previous post, were quite a sight. Apparently when they first started doing that years ago, quite a few birds got barbequed. Now, they (allegedly) give a small spurt of fire just to warn the perching birds before they let loose with the big shooting flames. It gets incredibly hot too on the ground when the flame show starts.

Hmmm... I wonder how enviro-friendly this flame-shooting exercise really is...
