To NICOLAS CAGE, all american Fans, NICsters, Cageiacs, members, guests, friends of the Castle and to everyone, who celebrate this special day of freedom today:
Thank you Roxy, it's true that Sun Yat-Sen and Chiang Kai-Shek had got alot support from the U.S. but I only celebrate Independence Day on 10th October.
I am Canadian, Roxie, so we don't celebrate Independence Day, we have Canada Day on July 1st instead. it was a gorgeous day and I went to the beach and got a sunburn for the occasion!
Ar sorry Lady T keep forgetting your national day is three days ahead of Independence Day, Lady T, it sounds like your holiday was a great one, happy belated Canada Day to you! I don't celebrate national day or attend any colour raising ceremonies but usually really happy a 3-day off from Oct. 1st to 3rd and Mid-Autumn Day is just one day before our national day this year. Must I say Bastille Day to French members in advance?
Bastille day is one week ahead, Tues, (July, 14th), so I think, you can wait till then! :) The national day in Germany (Tag der deutschen Einheit - German Unity Day) is commonly celebrated on Oct., 3rd. :)

I wish I could do that Roxy, but I'm one of those who would never take national day seriously, it's great to have such a day to be in honour of those heroes and heroines though. It looks nice, Roxy. The reunion of Germany is an epoch-making event of 20th century. you have any plan for your holiday this year, Roxy? Just noticed we would have a eight-day bank day for Mid-Autumn day and national day countrywide this year, not that shabby.
Yes, it is! The reunion of east- and westgermany! No, actually, I haven`t! To me, this is just an ordinary holiday. But, that`s ok! Maybe, I will cook something special, although, I haven`t decided yet! :) And, eight days of holiday is really NICe! Do you have special plans for those days, Tues? :=)
