The Polish Constitution Day Parade in Chicago [17]
I came home about 10 pm. They said on the radio it is 70F. That's a warm, beautiful evening. It was pretty hot today and it will be warmer tomorrow (80's), but only 50 & 60 next week. Personally, I love it. I don't like hot weather.
May 3rd Constitution Day was never celebrated in Poland during communist times. It was not a legal holiday.
Inspired by the American revolution, the Declaration of Independence and the American Constitution of 1787, the people of Poland formed and adopted the first democratic constitution in Europe on May 3, 1791. This become the second democratic constitution in the world.
Over the years, the endless Polish quest for freedom, peace and justice, and the ideals of the May 3rd Constitution united the polish nation and the world's Polonia who celebrated May 3rd Constitution Day.
