Ingrid spent her first July 4th roaming the streets of Hong Kong with Grandma and Grandpa. You wouldn't know that it is America's Independence Day, no flags, no fireworks and definitely no barbeque's (there are never any b-b-q's) so Ingrid took the opportunity to represent by wearing her reddest, whitest and bluest duds. It is somewhat fitting that we acknowledge our independence from Britain today while Hong Kongers commemorated their Handover from the British to the Chinese three days ago on July 1st. As Bob and Ingrid's Boston family like to say "those bloody Lobsterbacks!" Our celebration will consist of a family dinner high above the skyline, maybe we will introduce Ingrid to sparklers after all my Dad is a man who can't walk by a firework stand without buying something.
