To celebrate America’s 242nd birthday, Ambassador George Glass and Ms. Mary Glass hosted a traditional Independence Day reception at the U.S. Embassy in Lisbon. The U.S. Marine Guards marched their colors, and Portuguese band “Radio One” provided non-stop entertainment. This yea️r’s theme was “Country-Western.” Among the distinguished guests were Portuguese politicians, academics and foreign diplomats. Everyone enjoyed the authentic American July 4th celebrations.
This was a great Independence Day celebration! Thank you to everyone who attended and helped to make it a success!
