Fireworks. When we lived here in the 70s, fireworks were illegal (totalitarian governments are uncomfortable with easy accessibility to explosives), but they are back now and with a vengeance. Today is Day 5 of the New Year's celebration and if anything there were more last night and so far today than there were New Year's Eve.
It is impossible to get a good night's sleep and people are getting a little frayed -- even my Chinese hosts are complaining. Fireworks come in two categories, aerial and loud. The "loud" seem to be preferred and go off constantly with enough concussive effect to set off car alarms, further adding to the din.
I have been a firworks junkie all my life and I never thought I would say this but "Enough Already!".
