Happy Thanksgiving from across the pond! I hope everyone is having a good time with their family and friends. My Thanksgiving was definitely different than normal. I still had to go to school today because it is a "normal" day here in Spain. But the good thing is that I only had one class from 12:30-2:30 and not a whole day of classes. Our teacher was nice and brought in cookies for us to snack on during class because she knew it was Thanksgiving. Thankfully, I didn't have to spend Thanksgiving alone because I have Kitty and Kayla here with me. It is different being in a country with no Thanksgiving. It went straight from Halloween (which most people don't celebrate) to Christmas. The funny thing is though that Spain does celebrate Black Friday. We were originally planning on cooking and celebrating in our apartment, but we could not find a turkey or ham at the market to save our life. I also have not seen stuffing or pumpkin anything. So we decided instead to go to the mall because there were a couple of buffets. We ended up at an asian buffet, which wasn't too bad and had a lot of choices. We still achieved the "stuffed" feeling. Afterward, we walked around a little bit before we went back to the apartment. Hope everyone has an amazing and relaxing break!
