IdFLQ - MEXICO
Well, if you like White Fireworks, and practically nothing else, then Mexico was your night...
...for the rest of us however, who like a bit of variety and, dare I say it... COLOUR, well then Mexico was a bit of a snooze fest.
Add into that, a 5 min technical delay a mere 5 minutes inot their display, and you really begin to feel bad for them.
Their display was called "Chocolat" so we, being the good Chocolate lovers that we are, had HIGH expectations. It was not to be.
The music, it's one saving grace used a piece from my favourite Movie Composer... Ennio Morricone. They chose a piece from the movie The Misson which I absolutely love. As well they played some bizarre operatic corale version of La Bamba that we just over the top enough so as not to be enjoyable, and a spanish version of "My Way", which as Didier points out is NOT originally an American (Sinatra) song, but a French song called "Comme D'habitude" by Claude Francois.
Ok, enough babble, so you wanna see some pics...
It starts...
