Just in case you’re wondering, we ate dinner at McDonalds and came home and watched Youtube videos of fireworks.  The Southerner found a video of the incredible fireworks display they set off at Disney World while someone is singing God Bless America in the background. We both pretended not to get teary-eyed, but we did. We REALLY love fireworks.

We tried to rent Independence Day at our local video store, but some other American beat us to the punch.  It’s weird the lengths we’ll go to try to not feel left out even from half-way across the world.

Oh! And I wore red, white and blue all day.  Even to the supermarket.  Not like anyone noticed.  Living away from home has obviously made me kind of hokey.
