Boom!… Boom, Boom, Boom!
That is the sound of bottle rockets going off starting around 6AM this morning and continuing several times an hour for the rest of the day.
They are often followed by the sound of car alarms being triggered, so the noise continues long past the initial explosions.
These rockets and fireworks can be purchased at tiny stands throughout the city, which seem to be mostly frequented by teenagers. Kind of reminds me of that year in High School when I… well, that’s another story, isn’t it? ☺
Ear plugs certainly come in handy!!! We live just off Remigio Crespo and often need them, especially on the week-ends.
