July 4th Fireworks Finale (Video)

Sonoma, Calfornia, home of Connected Traveler, is rated by many as having one of the best 4th of July celebrations in America with a two hour parade: dancing horses and rope twirling from the town’s Hispanic community, a troupe of toddler fiddlers playing “Turkey in the Straw,” a march of twelve-foot tall women and more. In the evening, thousands of people flock to a field on the grounds of the historic home of General Vallejo, who ruled the area for Mexico before it became part of the United States.
