I'm always a bit wary of celebrating this day in a foreign country..after an incident on the lovely Greek island of Mykonos ( before it was invaded by all those plain queens and "celebrity DJs").
The delightful bar called Pierros was were we all gathered nightly as a Puerto Rican drag star named Carlos did a fab version of Liz Minnelli precariously atop the bar only 12 inches wide as he dodged whirling ceiling fans-he convinced me that we must celebrate the coming 4Th of July in costume and at parties.
I readily agreed-for I was only young then, and stitched up overnight, fueled by Ouzo, a lovely costume that consisted of red white and blue whatever..but I looked sensational in Stars & Stripes.
We gathered, not at the bar-but at the famous ( late) Pierro's home-owner of the bar and owner of the most sensational clifftop house with windows opening wide with a breathtaking view of the Aegean spread below.
Much champagne was consumed in the intoxicating breeze and we set out on foot to one of the famous Mykonos windmills-then owned by Lady Thingamabob (can't remember her name) which had been converted to a glorious home-if somewhat noisy as the wind grew and the sails gathered pace.
AS we entered those charming white washed cobble-stoned streets of Mykonos town, I gradually became aware of quiet mutterings from the locals that gradually grew to rather rude insults finally accompanied by some rather hefty rocks flung in our direction..we ran , screeching as missiles pelted down upon us-a group of terrified screaming queens in a blur of red, white and blue until we finally reached the safety of Pierro's Bar where we tore of our costumes.
How was I to know that Pierro had just been released from an Athens jail after 9 months with the accusation that he was a CIA spy reporting for the Greek generals who had just been deposed ?
That was the day I realised that the Irish will go just about anywhere for a free drink but Americans are not always too popular. I don't know if things have changed much !
I'm only a light drinker. When it's daylight I drink.
Try Denmark! The US Fourth of July is celebrated as a National Holiday in Denmark. Americans and Irish always welcome.Originally Posted by Lunchtime O'Booze
"Try Denmark! "
I've been invited there for a conference in June '09 so I just might.
I hope you will be able to refer me to where one might make the acquaintance of young Danish gentleman !
I was once given the best b/j in my life by a Danish taxi driver visiting London..many years ago. Never forgot it !

When was this proclaimed? I was in Denmark on 4th July some years ago and no Dane was celebrating the date then as a public holiday.
Danes and Danish-Americans celebrate the U.S. Independence Day by the world's largest 4. July event outside the United States.
But it is not a National Holiday in Denmark
As they say in Denmark "Han taler nosser"
Danish Public Holidays . A pint of Akvavit (Akavit) to the first person to find July 4th on this list.
I stand corrected. Maybe better to say some Danes celebrate Fourth of July as an American National Holiday?
