Turkey sushi. No mom, we did not eat turkey sushi, contrary to what my family thought. It took a bit of explanation because SOMEONE apparently spread that rumor. We did, however eat sushi. After evaluating our ability (or lack thereof) to produce a decent typical meal with the tools of the hotel room (a refrigerator and a table) we decided not to eat cold typical Thanksgiving foods and instead hit up SUSHI. Yeah, sushi for Thanksgiving. It was delicious but very odd as Frances and I sat in a Japanese restaurant in Brazil thinking about our different traditions of giving thanks. And of course occasionally seeing a flash of new American music (weird) on the TV. But Thanksgiving consisted of sushi, ice cream, apples and chocolate pastries. It was very odd but interesting. An anti-Thanksgiving but with lots to be thankful for.
It was way fun to video chat with the whole family and see everyone though it doesn't make up for not seeing them in the flesh. But soon enough! I am way excited.
