On July 7, 1960, la Cote d'Ivoire became independent from France, so today is a national holiday. There were flags on all the official buildings, as well as on lots of shops. Even more people than usual were wearing the bright orange national team football shirts, and everyone seemed to be in a good mood. The beautiful sunshine this afternoon didn't hurt, either.
Happy Independence Day, Cote d'Ivoire!
