Second
World Pyrotechnics Display Olympics
Millions of Filipinos and foreign tourists have witnessed
the spectacular fireworks during the 2nd World Pyro
Olympics that lit up the sky of the Esplanade area of
the Mall of Asia complex in Pasay City.
The Philippines and nine competing countries - Australia
(defending champion), China, Germany, Korea, Russia,
South Africa, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom and
the United States - participated in the amazing displays
of fireworks on the 5th to the 7th and 12th to 13th
of January 2007. This followed the 1st World Pyro Olympics
also in Pasay City that painted the sky with dazzling
lights and left wonder in the eyes of highly entertained
sky watchers.
The
lively, flashy and dazzling display of pyrotechnics,
that threw a thousand colors in a dancing motion to
the night sky of Pasay, elicited yeheys and wows from
the amazed crowds that scattered across the sprawling
Mall of Asia complex, regarded as one of the largest
shopping havens in the world.
Watchers, however, had to bear the inconvenience of
going to and out of the Esplanade area, because of the
extraordinary volume of vehicles that brought the millions
of people looking for unique entertainment. But despite
an hour or so of being stuck in the traffic, watchers
went home contented, with lively images of lights lingering
in their dreams as they slept through the night to face
the most dazzling light of the day hours later.
