We live in the best place ever for 4th of July celebrations. Massachusetts. Famous fireworks are on display from Boston Harbor, where Keith Lockhart conducts the Boston Pops at the Esplanade to Falmouth Heights on Cape Cod. Towns compete and take pride in their unbelievable firework antics.
Travel and Leisure actually lists Boston and Falmouth in the top 10 places in America to see a fireworks on the 4th. John Adams is a founding father and responsible for initiating some pomp and circumstance for celebratory July 4ths. Looks like the Adams cousins are revolutionaries who had their party pants on. We all know what Sam is now famous for, although he wasn't back in his day.
Have a happy 4th of July and for everyone in the northeast, I hope the sunny skies prevail and the show goes on. I think it's been raining for months. Bring a little Sam with you!
The Tall Ships are also coming up the Massachusetts coast from the Cape to Gloucester and Boston. If you have never seen them, check out the schedule and take the children. They are absolutely stunning. Check them out here.
