I was up sick with a cold and ended up with a hot toddy and reading a book, when at midnight I heard a lot of explosions far away. Went on for about 15 minutes and I figured it was a fireworks display someplace? Probably in San Ignacio. I looked out my front door, but didn´t see anything in the night sky from Santa Elena Town. It sounded certaily like an impressive amount of fireworks shot off for a budget. Independence Day and all that. Never knew anything about it. There had been no announcements on television news channels.

There was a big firework display in Belize City, think it was sponsored by Taiwan
