That was me with my "treasures." My precious! They cost me $75 total and I probably still got ripped off. But they were pretty fun. I added some photos to the pictures from the 17th, in case you happened to have looked at those already. Some were of us playing Mahjong last night. One of the owners of the Big Apple Preschool, Kirk, came over, along with his son, Samuel. Unfortunately Joseph and the rest of the kids were fast asleep. I'm not sure how anyone could be fast asleep during that ruckus. I really can't begin to describe the cacaphony of all the fireworks. I got up at midnight because I wasn't asleep yet and I took some more pictures when things went only slightly crazier. My brother-in-law Mark commented that if Qingdao has six million people, probably half of them buy some sort of firework. I added that if each of those three million fireworks even averages ten things shot up, that's 30 million fireworks that you can see or hear. It was constant. I recorded some audio on my phone but I'm not sure it recorded well. I will see if I can post it (I couldn't). I've had a heck of a time getting the stuff from the 15th posted, so hopefully that will appear eventually as well.

Awwww! don't you look so cute!! Such a big smile!!
Are those Class B or are they still Class C? Or do they note denote a class, assuming they aren't labeled for export?
Most importantly, did you light fuse and GET AWAY?
I don't think it says anything about what class they are. I didn't actually get away that far after lighting them. They didn't exactly emit showers of sparks either. Also the fuses took a long time once they got iside the firework so I thought they were gonna be duds!
Did they come with reports?
They probably have to make the fuses faster on the ones they export to America because they know we're so impatient.
