This is Africa: 4th of July

Yes, we can even celebrate American holidays in Africa. Thanks to the US Embassy and the American school for a fabulous 4th of July party!

I haven't seen so much red, white and blue in a VERY long time.

There were flags in flower pots.

Uncle Sam with a face that looks a lot like mine, saying, "We want you!"

We met up with the wonderful Whitlocks.

Had some fun at the face painting booth.

Then came the games. Tug-of-war.

Volleyball.

All in all, it was a great celebration. It put us in a great mood to return to our homeland for a few weeks. God bless America. Land that we love.

What did you do this 4th of July?
