We made traditional dishes and everyone chipped in to buy a turkey! (They are flown in from America just for Thanksgiving). We bought our ingredients from our local outdoor market (we made the vendors' day!)
Before dinner, everyone shared something they're thankful for and Kalan briefly told the story of the first Thanksgiving (our British and Taiwanese friends hadn't heard it before).
It was a fun night to share an American tradition and get to know some of our Taiwanese brothers and sisters better. Both Kalan and I are thankful for the relationships we've made in Taiwan. We are also thankful for our friends and family across the ocean.
Happy Thanksgiving!
