Thanksgiving has a different feel here since I had no break from studies and Erin was at work. This is the first time that we have not had a week to enjoy the break. Oh well, we still had some turkey. We spent Thursday night with another American student and his family. We ate all the traditional food. On Saturday we went to one of Erin's student's house. They are American and invited us over for a Thanksgiving meal with some of their Scottish friends. It was a nice, relaxing evening. So, although we did not get our days off, Thanksgiving was still nice.
The Christmas season has also arrived here in Aberdeen. We had an international market this past weekend and next weekend there will be a German market. The Christmas lights are up over Union St. in City Centre. Most of the scenes have lights that go on and off to show motion. The pictures aren't the best, but they will give you an idea of what it is like.
