Just wanted to wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving!
I also want to share the card that my maternal grandmother (my only living grandparent) sent to us last week. It could possibly be the best card I've ever received:
Who knew they even made such a card - "With Love to a Special Grandson and his Wonderful Wife". So nice.
Sadly I had a difficult time finding a proper American Thanksgiving card here in Dubai, so I rigged up an extra Christmas card I had left over from last year. It could possibly be the worst card I've ever sent:
See, the snowman is holding a turkey (colored in with orange Hi-Liter®, no less). And he's psyched about it, too - he's saying, "Mmmmmm, Turkey!"
Yeah, I suck.
In my own defense, last year at Thanksgiving was my first trip to Dubai ever, and long before I thought I would move here. Subsequent holidays I made sure to stock up on cards for.
Seriously.
Hey man, Boy Scout Motto - "Be prepared".
Anyway, tomorrow Liz and I are heading into Bur Dubai for dinner with some other American expats, if anything thrilling or funny happens look for it here first. Happy Thanksgiving!!
