Opening Night 2007 was a blast! Great performances from music to dance to plays to comedians to improv to magic shows and finally fireworks... It's always the most eventful night of the year. We got a much better fireworks spot this year- last year we had to watch the reflection of them... haha. Opening Night is just such a great atmosphere and there's something to do for everyone.
Ice Sculpture... HAPPY NEW YEAR, and also HAPPY CENTENNIAL!

Canal... (This was right after midnight, I guess everyone is still downtown- it was super quiet. We booked it out of there to stay out of traffic!)

Japanese Drum Performance, and the skyline.

A stroll through the Myriad Gardens...

A fun tropical-sounding band was playing in the Crystal Bridge.

Here's the stage and the ball. It was such a fun atmosphere for the last 30 minutes especially. Great experience!

So many people! This was the warmest part of the night because everyone was in one place...

The nightmare of a traffic jam that always follows Opening Night... Even the horse-drawn carriages got caught in it! I don't think I've ever heard so much honking at once...

Hope you enjoyed the pictures... I'm getting better with this nighttime photo feature... ;)
