I would just like to point out that we never tried this hard to look patriotic when we were stateside. There's something about being this far abroad that makes you want to flaunt your American-ness, something I would have thought myself loathe to do. We attended a work picnic in which Americans were outnumbered 3 to 1. Yet there we were together, celebrating a most American holiday. It was . . . different.
