Pyro Spectaculars by Souza gave us a behind the scenes look into the preparation work leading up to the show.Considering that last year the fog made it basically impossible to see fireworks, this time the experts have a different strategy. "So we decided this year we will start the display at the deck of the barge," said Dyas and added, "We have filled in the lower level that wasn't filled in last year. The show will still go up to 1,200 to 1,500 feet at the upper level but there will be things to see at the lower level too."
Caroline Farley and her family are praying for no fog. They made the trip from Canada to San Francisco especially for the holiday. "It was a dream to see an Independence Day in America with the Americans," said Farley and added, "I know Americans love their country and I wanted to see that. I'm quite excited to see how it's going to be tonight."
