July 4 - Independence Day

Yesterday we went to lake Champlain, when we arrived there was a lot of people and I was surprised the amount of persons the were on the lake and I senced a feeling of patrotism from part of the americans. In Colombia we celebrate the independence day on july 20th.When the fireworks started it was awsome to see  the different effects and cool things they could do with the fireworkslike creating happy faces or planets. On that day there is a huge parade in a park called parque Simon Bolivar made by many people including the armed forces,etc. In Colombia there is a great feeling of patriotism too but people dont gather in a public there like they did here
