#美国夏日时光# #夏季旅游# #美国独立日# 1776年7月3日,约翰·亚当斯预期大陆会议将通过《独立宣言》,他在给妻子的信中写道,这一天“将作为伟大的周年纪念日得到子孙后代的庆祝。它应得到隆重庆祝,大张旗鼓地举行游行、表演、游戏、体育活动、放礼炮、敲钟、点篝火、张灯结彩;从大陆的一端到另一端,从此时此刻直至永远。”烟花表演因此成为了美国全国的娱乐活动,而七月四日的庆祝活动几乎总是伴随着一场烟花表演达到顶峰。美国各地的人们耐心等待表演在日落后拉开帷幕。

#USIndependenceDay
On July 3, 1776, anticipating the Continental Congress adopting the Declaration of Independence, John Adams wrote to his wife that the day “will be celebrated, by succeeding generations, as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with [shows], games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations from one end of this continent to the other from this time forward forever more.”
Thus, fireworks have become a national past time and Fourth of July festivities almost always culminate with a fireworks display. People across the country wait patiently for the sun to set and the show to begin.
