A much dreamed of celebration.
A celebration which really attracts my attention is "4th of July". It is the Independence Day of the United States.
It's a federal holiday in this country that commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. The Continental Congress declared that the thirteen American colonies regarded themselves as a new nation, the United States of America, and were no longer part of the British Empire.
It is an important date in history but nowadays it has become a day of party and celebration. People attend to concerts, baseball games, barbecues... And something really popular during this day are fireworks. Millions of them are thrown to the sky. This is one of the most iconic images of "Fourth of July".
I wish someday I'll have the opportunity to go there and enjoy this day as American people do.
This country, in general, has always attracted me so when I have enough money saved up (around 3.000 or 4.000€), the first place I will definitely visit is the United States, especially during this day. So later I could also visit some other cities as New York or Boston, Washington D.C. or even more!
My younger sister is also a big fan of this celebration, so I cannot think for a better partner to share this experience with in a near future.
