How did you like the fireworks last night?
I really didn't enjoy them too much. There was such a big crowd that we couldn't get very close.
I thought you were going early.
We did, but even though we got there at ten to eight, the park was already filled with lots of people. It was so crowded that we had a hard time finding a place even to stand.
That's too bad, because the fireworks were really wonderful.
What did you do? How did you manage to get a good view?
We went early. We decided to have a picnic so we'd be sure to get there early enough to find a good place.
I guess that's what I should do next Fourth of July.
We found a place on top of some rocks where nobody could get in front of us. We could appreciate the fireworks perfectly.
What did you do about going home? I've never been pushed so much in my whole life!
Oh, we stayed around for an hour or so, but they ran extra buses until midnight, so we didn't have any problem.
I think you were lucky. I hope I will be just as lukcy as you next year.
