It is true, they do not celebrate Thanksgiving in Munich . . . unless you know Mark, Maren and the Schambecks! After time in the Palo Alto Technology Office, they now celebrate Thanksgiving every year in Munich to continue the tradition. So, on the Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend, we went to eat some turkey and hang out again with some great friends (this was the second annual).
Will, playing with Silvia as she tries to keep him out of trouble. See that bookshelf behind her? Very interesting . . . as was the TV, the stereo, the plant (with dirt in it), etc. You get the idea.
Hanging out with mom and getting ready to eat some turkey.
The table, ready for the turkey.
And, das Vogel (the bird).
Once again, we had an amazing meal with some really great friends. We feel so lucky to be a part of their tradition and will remember it I'm sure during our future Thanksgivings next time we are in Colorado, Oklahoma, California, or ??? And of course, we can't wait for the day when our German friends can come out and celebrate Thanksgiving with us again in the US. Consider it a standing invitation.
