Warming up

And so the time came for Lego Man to face his fate. I can't help feeling that they made him look slightly evil (it's all in the eyebrows) so children wouldn't feel so bad about watching him burn.

Then again, a couple of years ago I watched them light up a giant Nemo (from finding Nemo) and no-one seemed to mind.

If you've got a slightly morbid curiosity you can see how he met his end at the end of the photo series here.

You can also see the Eiffel Tower that was competing on another beach (and a procession of the Madonna which seems standard at any Italian festival).
