Tokyo Olympics 2020

A nice story for a rainy Sunday:

The Tokyo Olympics were cancelled in 2020 because of COVID-19.  Fireworks could not be stored until 2021 so they discharged them a few days ago in Tokyo.  See Mt. Fuji in the background and enjoy the William Tell Overture.  For best viewing, enlarge the video.


They are rescheduled for July 23, 2021.
