July 4 Parade

The day before the Regatta, we had an evening of rest and went downtown to see the parade and the fireworks. First we took the train downtown and walked to the parade. After a hasty dinner, we walked to the Boathouse and hung aroudn waiting for the fireworks to start. Sabir slipped on the stairs when we were going to look at the silhouette of Boathouse Row and hurt his elbow. So we decided to skip the firework. Fortunately while walking to the 30th street station, the fireworks started and managed to see it all. It might not have been as restful as we planned!
