Hi, Everybody!!
Recently, I've suffered from the noise of fireworks throughout Auckland. The noise came from out of window has kept me distracting to get sleep for last 4 days due to like the festival called Bonfire Night from Guy Fawkes Day that has been acknowledged in UK.
If you find out the further details of the day, please google it. hehe
Surprisingly, it's not allow us to purchase fireworks at any shops except for only 4 days of Guy Fawkes Days in a year. That's why, the massive sets of fireworks are sold like hot cakes during the days, and we can also see some guys in the city who sell it on the truck.
Last night when I was hanging around the town with my mates, I saw some boys on the big square in the mid of the town who was setting heaps of rockets off against the clock tower!! That was on the verge of a fire on it.
According to the news, hundreds of fires break out in NZ every year for only this 4 days. I just wonder why the government doesn't make any action on this affair... I guess it should be abolished clearly.
In Japan, we normally go and see fireworks at hot spots and buy it to do with friends in summer, but it's known as a summer seasonal tradition in UK. Although there is a direct correlation between UK and NZ about it, that tradition has been inherited to NZ at the moment.
However, I was reminded again that there are so many kind of quirky cultures and customs which I haven't touched yet in this world.
ども！！今日はＮＺの花火についてのお話。
日本でいうと花火は夏の風物詩ですが、イギリスなどでは秋から冬の風物詩として知られています。ここＮＺでも、その風習自体に関係性はないものの、それに習って同じ時期に花火週間が訪れます。
というのも、ここＮＺでは１年のうちに花火を購入できるのはたった４日間のみ！笑 それが１１月２日～５日までで、これを「Guy Fawkes Day」といいます。この日に関して興味がある方はまたご自分でお調べください。笑
まぁ「Bonfire night」というお祭りですね。この間だけは店頭に大量の花火が並びます。そして毎晩昼から真夜中まで花火が至るところで打ち上げられてます。ほんまに寝れないです。笑
街には車で花火売りの人も商売してるし、中心街に行けば広場ででっかい時計塔に花火向けるわ、あちこち見境なくロケット花火は手打ちロケット売ってるわで危ないってたらありゃしない。この数日間でＮＺ中で火災が何百件も毎年起こるみたい・・・。（だったら止めろよ・・・。）けど、子どもから大人まで色んな場所で楽しんでやってる。季節も今は春～夏だから日本人の自分に季節的にも違和感はないしね。
しかし、世界には色んな文化や習慣があるんだなぁと思った今日この頃でした！
