Ahhh the 4th of July. A great day it is, to be surely remembered for the years and decades to come. A great day for all humanity when a small but brave group of people fought for their homeland and won against all odds...

No fireworks here in Melbourne. The Australians were nice enough to fly about eight American flags in Federation Square on the 4th - a nice gesture and an appreciated one.

An American family that has been living in Melbourne (and our building) for a few years hosted a picnic on Sunday and invited us. Good grilled food. Met some visiting Americans and some nice Australians too. Our hosts did manage to get hold of a small pack of sparklers which we burned for our "fireworks" display.

The oddest part was meeting a guy not just from the USA and not just from Pennsylvania and not just from Philadelphia and not just from our hometown, but who grew up in a house we can see from the window of our house (and whose parents still live there). Talk about a small world!!
