Fireworks-Three in One Burst - Every year in the USA we celebrate our Independence Day on July 4th....we traditionally go to fireworks displays and cook outdoors...hot dogs and hambergers..It is a wonderful annual reminder of all of our country's fight for freedom...
Happy Independence Day, my friend....I understand the feeling of pride that you and your countrymen/women must be experiencing on this glorious day... In the USA, we have big celebrations with fireworks and food...everyone remembers this day for their own reasons plus the pride of the Nation... Are there special celbrations that are tradiditonal to the Phillipine's the marks this tribulation? I am just curious.....and want to learn.
