Happy Thanksgiving!

It's that time of year! Turkey Day! Well, at least in Canada.
So studying abroad certainly makes the celebration of a Canadian holiday a bit more interesting. At the beginning of the week I sent out a quick email to some of my Canadian friends here in Finland to see if they'd be up for having a Thanksgiving dinner. Well, the simple plans in the initial email quickly grew.
Five nationalities were represented at our dinner last night! 10 of the 15 people present celebrated their first Thanksgiving. With the Canadians doing the majority of the cooking, we were able to create a pretty stereotypical Canadian Thanksgiving dinner. I must say that I was quite impressed with how well the meal turned out considering it was a bunch of students who cooked it!
Sadly, my weekend came to an abrupt end. No holiday Monday here. My week began with an 8am exam. So I hope you were all able to enjoy the extra day off!!

Stay tuned, I'll post some pictures tomorrow hopefully!
