A different 4th of July

Last Thursday was July the 4th, the Independence Day of the United States, the most important national day in this country and we had the great opportunity to be here.

At 8am, the typical procession began in our neighborhood. The music and the noise of people in the street woke Almu and me. After breakfast, we took two chairs of the house and sat down to watch it. It was like the ride of January the 5th in Spain, we really enjoyed it.

After this we returned home to wait for Lulu, Diane's daughter in law, to come and pick us up. We drove to Pennsylvania to the house of another of the four sons of Diane. It was a big house in the countryside with a huge garden. There were many guests, family and friends, and a part from us two from EMC, Mikel and Javi were also invited.

They had prepared a snack and a very good barbecue outside. There was a lot of typical food. They were all very happy and very grateful to see us there for the work we were going to do the next few weeks. We spent much of the time with his grandchildren, and Regina, one of her granddaughters who is 17, told us she had done some prolife work like us before.
