Last night Armando and I went on post to participate in the 4th of July festivities! Parking near the festival was full so we parked right inside one of the gates and got on Military buses that shuttled people to and from the park. Once we got there we were amazed with how many people were there! The weather was nice at first but then we realized we should've brought along a jacket or hoodie! It was very chilly, which is not something either one of us are used to. We didn't have any chairs as we cannot retrieve our stuff from the Military until after the weekend but luckily we found a bench behind a building facing right towards the fireworks. It was nice, and kinda blocked the cold wind from attacking us! :) We had BBQ from one of the vendors, with a cold glass of Lemonade and just sat around waiting for the fireworks to begin. While we were waiting we looked up and saw one of Armando' s SSG's and his family. They watched the fireworks with us. Before the fireworks were over we hurried back to the location where the buses were and luckily got on and back to our car in time to get off post before the traffic got too bad! Stayed the night at The Best Western again, and are about to start our day. This will be our first day of exploring really...so we are excited to see what all the Springs has to offer!
