Tomorrow's the big day: July 4th! (And you know what that means -- Thursday is the first official day of summer! We kid, we kid... sort of.) You know where the fireworks shows are for the most part, and you know you can't have fireworks legally in most of King County (though the kids on Eastlake apparently don't), and you're ready to pack up a picnic basket, lawn chair, blanket, and waterproof jacket to catch the festivities firsthand. We've put together a map of the big celebrations around the Sound, cool places to watch each of them, and tips and tricks for each spot. If all else fails, though, don't forget the tried-and-true Seattle fireworks watching technique that never lets you down: turning on King 5.

Happy Fourth of July, everyone!
