By the time you read this, I will have celebrated the Fourth of July and gone to bed. Yes, the tiny town of Kaponga, with a population of about 400, has an American Independence Day celebration each year. As far as I know, I was the only American there, but they had lots of American cars and American music.
The temperature was 7C, which is about 44F (after all, it IS winter here) so we didn't stay long. I would have liked to see the fireworks, but not in the cold!
I'm hoping they might organize a weekend event next time so I can take some photos to share.
