Timing faux pas
Strangest Alton fireworks display I've seen. It didn't get started until just after 10 - then seemed to be over at about 10:15 and boats started leaving - then started up again for a few more rockets - then stopped again for a long time. This is when the boats in the bay started leaving in earnest (including us). Then more rockets - then none for another several minutes-then a few more. By the time of the actual grand finale, 80% of the boats had left. It was wierd.
