Sally,

This is one of the most spectacular fireworks events around!  I was in New York City in 1990 (or so) and it was the best as the fireworks went off over the Statue of Liberty, but this one is really cool!

I remember seeing fireworks by the Hilton Hawaiin Resort one year in Oahu.  Other than that what do you have in Hawaii?

Lucky :)
