Picnics, Meat, Pizzas, Fording Rivers and Fireworks - All in the Name of the USA

There's really nothing like being an American and celebrating the 4th of July. It's the absolute best day in the summer - complete with the best grilled meats, salads, games in the park, cold brews and of course fireworks. There's really nothing like being an American and celebrating the 4th of July as an expat. With Koreans, Canadians and South Africans and your American brothers and sisters from North, East, South and West.

This year, the Harrington's celebrated the 4th of July twice. Twice on the river. Twice with Lady Annyeong. Twice with good friends. Once with grilled meats. Once with pizza and kimbap. Once with a football and home brewed Apple Cider. Once with fireworks and a Pepsi. Once on the weekend. Once on a weeknight.



And, it's monsoon season. So the river walk ways are submerged. Lady made it safely. So did the Harrington's and their Monday night, pizza and kimbap, firework friends.
