Of course Memorial Day isn't a holiday here. But I work with some nice Americans who invited me over for a cookout to celebrate the holiday. It was a good mix of people from all over: Boston, San Francisco, Portland, and St. Louis.
We met down at a park by the bay in Balmain. The grownups (and I count myself in that group, I guess) ate snacks and drank beer while the kids ran around and played. It was a really lovely day - sunny and in the 70's. Almost just like the weather at home!
It was a nice evening: burgers were grilled, beers were drunk, and most importantly, apple pie was eaten. It doesn't get much more American than that!
