In the US we look forward to July 4th so that we can see the fireworks. Here in Italy, we see fireworks almost every day. Fireworks are legal here so for every birthday or celebration they do pretty amazing shows. I must live around a bunch of party animals because sometimes at 2am you can see fireworks and it doesn't matter what day of the week it is. Last night at 1:30am there were fireworks. The Italians know how to party. It usually is a big event with lots of food and the party doesn't really get...
