if i am not mistaken... the original date is june 12 but they changed it to july 4 when we were totally free from the americans... but they changed it back to june 12... i think it was Diosdado Macapagal who changed it back to june 12, the day we became free from the spaniards...

I forgot to add "happy Independance Day"!

I am going to Northern Ireland the week of our 4th of July, and the middle of the infamous Marching season there...Have friends there, lived just south of Belfast for two years, 12 years ago, right near the end of "the Troubles". There independance celebrations are facinating, really. To see the parades in person, red, white and blue, just like ours! (or ours just like theres!)
I was a catholic boy living in the heart of Loyalist Ireland. I can tell u, it was amazing, an experience I will never forget......
