2nd night was South Africa
Here is video from Global BC it's almost 30 mins South Africa FW Video There was a massive thunder & lightning storm that night, some you can see in the video, alot of the ooohs & aaahs are actually for the lightning  I only took a couple of pics of the fireworks cuz it was pouring & really cold by the time they started, plus I'd already gotten the camera wet trying to catch the  lightningSunset in the pouring rain Just after sunset, you can see the rain is making the water in the pool (foreground) ripple Check out the colours after sunset

The Final night was China
Global doesn't have any video up of China, if they do put one up I'll post it Here is video from Global BC it's almost 30 mins China FW Video Unfortunately for China there was virtually no wind that night so the smoke pretty much stayed right where the fireworks went off, doesn't affect the judging but sucks for viewing & picture taking

 within the next couple of days I would assume. It's a new format this year with 4 different countries competing instead of 3 plus the "Grand Finale" on the 4th night where the winner was announced that night.

Nope no grand finale it's over & done with for the year, they had 4 countries this time instead of 3. The past years grand finale was just each of the 3 countries getting 10 mins on the last night to blow it all out trying to out do each other

What an anticlimax, though!
 They need the grand finale so they have a spectacular backdrop while announching the winner!  for Canada!
