4th of July

   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!
