Fourth of July in Miami
In the United States, we find Miami, a city in Florida where everything can happen, where you can find people from all around the world.
I am not use to celebrate festivities from other countries, but sometimes special occasions happen, the ones that become really special memories for ourselves. Some time ago, I went to USA to visit my aunt, it was awesome, but the best thing that happened to me was to spend the fourth of July with her. She is not from the United States, but she says that the fourth of July is her favorite day of the year.

Also, we know that the “Fourth of July” is a very big festivity in the United States because everyone is celebrating the independence of the country, so probably is one of the most important days of the year for the country.
In Miami, people celebrate the fourth of July in a different way as the other parts of the country; this is because a lot of non-Americans live in Florida. On that day, my aunt woke me up earlier; she said that we were going to spend the day at the beach. When we arrived, there were a lot of families enjoying the day together, everybody was having fun. When I asked my aunt what was going on with the people, why was everyone being not really patriotic, she answered that people in Miami people use that day to have fun with their families.
I enjoyed that day doing a lot of activities like playing volley and soccer at the beach, but, the best moment of the day was in the afternoon, I saw that everyone was getting together and staring at the sea, some minutes later the sky was filled with fireworks representing the colors of the flag, it was amazing, at first I thought the people in Miami were not patriotic but after what I saw, everyone, even the people who are not Americans are together hugging and
