Happy Fourth of July!


Fourth of July is a big day in Juneau. The whole population of 30,000 people or so come to downtown Juneau to watch the fireworks which are on the night of the 3rd/4th, unlike everywhere else in the USA. A big group of us gathered at Brian's mom's house to watch the fireworks from her porch. Only one small cruise ship in town that night.

It was a pretty decent show, lasted about 30 minutes.

The day of the fourth is also a big deal, the only traffic problem I'll ever see in Juneau is this day, it took us about ten minutes to pull out of a parking lot after the parade. This picture is the Filipino group dancing and representing. They had great outfits!

The loud and fun group I was with most of the day!
