Happy 4th of July from
Germany! Even though Germans do not celebrate this very important day, I did. I
wore red, white, and blue and listened to patriotic songs! I attended a small
BBQ with some other Americans. We also invited a few Germans…..so that they
could learn to appreciate our American traditions too J One of the Americans went
shopping at an American army base and bought American food for this special occasion.
So we had a real, authentic 4th of July with typical American food
and drinks! It was great! We even had s’mores and country music, which made it
feel like we were in the US. All we needed was fireworks.
Two little girls in attendance
had fun waving American flags, even though they are not American! It was very
cute. The kids also had fun finding sticks for the s’mores. One little boy who
has never made s’mores before returned with a big log. His mom had forgotten to
specify that it needed to be a thin stick! The kids had a great time with this
wonderful treat. I would say that our 4th of July in Germany was a success!
God Bless America!
