4th of July

As it turns out, quite a few Americans reside in Paris.  Enough, in fact, to take over a small corner of the Bois de Boulogne.


There are certain cultural requirements of America.  Celebrating the 4th is a favorite.  Something about earning a sunburn, grilling, and rice crispy treats hits home – or brings you back.

It’s lucky to have a group of us that organizes and executes such a great outing.  Even better when over a hundred show up and the weather is more than cooperative.  We even played the time-honored sport of kickball. 

Thank you for the effort.  It was well worth it and much appreciated.
