Memorial Day and Independence Day

So two days ago was Memorial day in Israel and it was really cool, there was a siren that went off at 11:00 just like what happened on Holocaust rememberence day. There were fireworks that night for memorial day. I didnt really have any Israeli to remember so I just thought about the people whi fight for our country. Then yesterday was independence day and we didnt have school (which made me happy!:) But throughout the middle of the day jets and planes were flying just above our heads and it was really cool and also there were fireworks last night too, they were really cool, this was a really neat experience.
