Thanksgiving!

Turkey....we had a lovely feast prepared by the lovely Margaret, Turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes and marshmallow, peas and white onions, banana muffins, apple sauce, carrots and gravy!
Hoboken...missing the train in Dover due to it never opening its doors we had to road trip across New Jersey to the lovely Hoboken and get the path train straight into Manhattan. Amazing views of the NY skyline.

Apple pie...and pumpkin pie and cherry pie and brownies and icecream and cookies....Immense deserts all homemade!

NFL sports....Sam watched the american football with Maggies Dad, brother in law and nephew.


Kids and Dogs... We've missed children, and what a pleasure it was to spend Thanksgiving with two of the most polite and disciplined American Kids ever, Maggies niece and nephew. Dexter the dog was a cutie too!





Stars...it was lovely to be in the country and be able to see the stars in the sky as New York has this constant glow.

Games were played...including a game of hide and seek, with the children and the big kids (me and sam) of course!

Intelligent conversation learning brand new french words from Half Sister Jerry!

Very Confusing Penn Station, madness on Thanksgiving after the parade, and no directions to any platforms, they give passengers all of 9minutes to find the platform and board the train....MADNESS!


Idyllic country side and some massive condo's (houses!). Travelling through a rural state felt like we were in a film...wooden houses similar to Wizard of Oz...!

NJ Transit was a rather interesting experience, a double decker train and thousands of stops, finally reaching our destination of Dover with one or two other people!


Giving a massive thank-you to the Christel's for such lovely hosting of our first ever Thanksgiving!!!
