After being annoyed all day by military flyovers every 20 minutes for several hours, we walked down the street to catch a glimpse of the 'biggest fireworks display in the world' (851,000 fireworks). Our normal fireworks viewing spot on the National Mall was behind a security perimeter for a presidential speech and for the 'Great American State Fair'. We found a spot south of Dupont Circle to watch the show. It was late Saturday evening so the area was packed with rowdy young people heading to the bars and clubs.
