Our neighbors (vecinos) from Canada joined us to celebrate our Independence Day. We even sang "Oh Canada" with them.
Elder Benson was the MC and music director in his "Cat in the Hat" type patriotic fedora.
We sang, ate dinner, and listened to many stories about America and how people feel about our country while living abroad. We even heard the speech of Patrick Henry given by President Lyon, the president of the Santiago Temple. Elder Benson lent him his hat for the occasion. President Lyon's teacher made him memorize this speech when he was 13 years old--it is amazing how much we can remember when we get old. At least he can.
