Happy Thanksgiving
Being Thankful is something that is lost. People tend to take things for granted. It's just human nature to. I try to be thankful everyday and I think that the people around me everyday see this and feel it. So Thanksgiving day isn't celebrated here but I found out about a holiday celebrated in the countryside mostly called Martini Day (Nov.11) that celebrates St. Martin. So for this day there is a goose specially raised and eaten for this day or during this season. The name of the goose is Martini Ganz (goose). I had the opportunity to try this last week with Monika and her parents at a Haurigan (wine house). It was delicous and to me it tasted alot like pork (Schweinefleisch)
So back to being thankful because the season calls for it, I will say that I am very thankful and greatful for all of the people that have made my "vacation" possible. So many people are involved in this. From those that gave me support and encouragement, to those that were a bit skeptical at the farfetched idea. I have to say that everyone gave me good feedback, well wishes and words of encouragement.
I'm greatful to my family, friends and peers that await eagerly for my updates back in the US and to my new found family, friends and peers that are over here supporting me, helping me and getting to know me. So remember to be thankful for the everyday people, blessings, and ordinary occurrances everyday. Surprise someone and tell them you appreciate what they do for you everyday.
