Thanksgiving (Written by Patrick)

The four of us had Thanksgiving together with the Earlham students on the SICE program, their host families, and many other people who have some tie to Earlham.


When I was on SICE, we only had four students, so the Thanksgiving was rather lacking. This year, however, with about a dozen students on SICE, we had a comprehensive selection of both Japanese and American cuisine, including cranberries (!!!) and mashed potatoes. Chicken took the place of turkey, but that's just because turkey is outrageously expensive here.


Unfortunately, there are no pictures of the feast because I think that in our hunger we all forget to bring our cameras.


And although Thanksgiving is not a holiday here, we had Friday off, as it was some variety of labor day.
