Scales of fireworks and firecrackers in this city were beyond my expectation.
この街での大晦日の花火と爆竹は想像以上に盛大だった。

I sometimes hear fireworks. They are not for watching but for enjoying (?) their sound like blank shots.
時々花火が聞こえる。見るタイプではなく、その空砲のような音を楽しむ（？）タイプの花火。

Fantastic! The peal of fireworks & firecrackers split the sky every 5 min.
凄いすごい！5分に1回は花火が上がり爆竹が轟く。大晦日の京都での除夜の鐘のよう。

As may be expected of the country where gunpowder was invented.
さすがは火薬が発明された国や。

新年好! Happy New Year! 新年明けましておめでとう！
Detonating sounds and gun smoke are covering whole city!
爆音と硝煙とが街を覆う！
The sporadic blast sounds were decreasing their interval, then the climax came when the data was changed! They ignited something required permission from fire office if you are in Japan here and there. I was able to feel the new year by not only my hearing, eyesight, smell but also my touch since cinders flew to me. It's tasteful...no, dangerous!
昼過ぎから散発的に響いていた爆音はその間隔をどんどん縮め、日付が変わるとクライマックス！日本だと消防署の許可が要るようなものをそこらかしこで着火！聴覚、視覚、嗅覚、そしてなんか燃えカスとかも飛んでくるので触覚でも新年を感じる。風流…じゃねーよ危ねー！
I learned "Maai" (area, distance) of a firework or a cackler.
花火と爆竹の間合いを学習した。T
