Thanksgiving(ish)

Imagine how others see USA Thanksgiving. What do they think of? Turkey – check. Mashed potatoes – check. Pie – ok… they made pecan happen. Stuffing – sure… it was close at least. Donuts – absolutely. What is more American than donuts?! So we must enjoy them as part of our Thanksgiving meal as well!! 


In all seriousness, the crew went above and beyond to try to help us celebrate our traditions. It was very sweet of them. Please note, I wore my fancy shirt to celebrate.

Plus we got to celebrate Leigh’s first Thanksgiving! 


With just under 20 hours left on the ship (25ish after the high winds kept us waiting to dock the next morning), we relaxed, enjoyed our new friends, played cards and tried to ride out a rough few final hours on the Drake. 

Thank you to the amazing crew! It was truly incredible. I hope that Michael and I will be able to come back again some day!
