Celebrating America's Independence in Britain

We had no idea what to expect from the 4th of July abroad - especially celebrating in the country that we gained our independence from. Lucky for us, we still had a full house (of Americans) that we could celebrate with.


We all headed to a local pub that was having a "4th of July" cookout. So while there wasn't fireworks, there was plenty of American flags, hamburgers, hotdogs and pints (although not Budweiser) to go around. We had a blast celebrating amidst the British accents, and are thankful that our full house was there to help us represent : )


The Newlyweds Abroad hope you all had a fabulous 4th of July too!! (We are seriously jealous of the weather back home right now...)

  1. I am really enjoying your blog posts; it looks like you guys are taking advantage of all that is available for two expats on the loose. It was a pity we were not able to meet up while we were in London last weekend. We spent the evening of the 4th with friends down in Surrey; now I remember why they call it 'Booze Britain'!

    1. Hi Julie! Yes, it is too bad that we couldn't meet up when you were in town. Sounds like you had a good time with your friends though! Are you and Ted heading to Wham weekend? We are going to try to Facetime you all while you are there!
