Gift #329- Our Wet 4th of July

No fireworks again this year in Iwakuni and enough rain to float the ark, but we had so much food and fun with friends that the day was a big success.  We had a block party in the early evening.  Some of the guys rented tents and tried tying them together.  The rain made huge puddles on the top of them and every now and then one would give way and someone would get soaked.  The funny thing is, no one had enough sense to get out of it.  There were 8 adults huddled together in sideways rain telling stories and laughing at ourselves.  The kids were out in the rain- skim boarding in the grass and splashing in the puddles.  It was a very memorable 4th here in the land of the rising sun.

Mom would have been proud!  :0)
