Thanksgiving is Israel





We were in the Galilee for Thanksgiving. We stayed in a kubutz, which consists of many little cottages on the beach. The Sea of Galilee is beautiful and peaceful. On Wed. evening the place that fed us cooked us a Thanksgiving dinner. We walked into a room decorated with red, white, and blue balloons. Out came the waldorf salad, the baked potato, the sweet potatoes, the corn, and the rolls. But the most exciting part was when they turned out the lights and brought out the turkeys with sparklers in the top. Everyone cheered and clapped. Craig was able to carve the turkey for our table. We did miss the cranberry sauce and the pumpkin pie, but Thanksgiving in the Galilee was a once in a life time event.

That truly is a once in a lifetime event! Makes me want to put fireworks on our turkey next year! Ha!
