Can you give me some of the best places to sit for the fireworks? And how early do you advise to get a spot??

The best view is from Main Street. Depending on the time of year, we usually stake out a spot about an hour or so in advance. We get some ice cream and wait it out. To be honest though, the huge crowd comes like 15 minutes before they start and usually blocks your view and you end up standing up anyway. So I guess you could technically walk over there then.
