Turkey Day - Okinawa Style

Since we were too lazy & tired of other recent travels to take advantage of the long weekend to plan & take a trip (although we should have, we now realize in 20/20 hindsight), we are more than happy to report that we had a very lovely Thanksgiving holiday with several good friends. And we did the American traditions grand honor, being very thankful for the feast that we assembled & attempted to consume. We had some great food, including a 20+ lb turkey & sides (purchased from our friendly MCCS - I think it was prepared at Camp Foster's Globe & Anchor club) as well as numerous home-made items that different people contributed. We definitely ate more than we should have allowed ourselves to (continuing that tradition). And we didn't just enjoy the food on Thanksgiving Day itself but also for several days after!

One of our favorite Thanksgiving companions was 18-month-old Cayce. Here's a fun video of her digging into some cool whip after we enjoyed leftovers 2 days after Thanksgiving: The main objective (well, besides watching her make a mess) was getting her to say "Hi, Grampa!" We thoroughly enjoyed her version:
