The Fireworks are Special, but....

Fireworks 4th of JulyWell, yes, fireworks on our birthday do make us feel extra special. The problem is, deciding if pushing through crowds and getting there early for a good viewing spot is all worth it. This will be my first birthday experience in NYC, and if I want a good viewing spot, it was suggested that I get there before sunset. Perhaps if I was celebrating the holiday I would sacrifice such a huge chunk of time and push through massive crowds, but I'd rather not spend my birthday evening in such a situation.
