This weekend is our first introduction to the U.S. Thanksgiving tradition. The holiday is a huge deal here. First, people generally get the Thursday and Friday off. Thursday is spent eating turkey and watching football; and Friday is spent fighting the hoards for Black Friday sales (As a side note, I didn't think the sales were that amazing in relation to their every day sales).
The four day weekend is very long. It is only Friday and I am trying to find things to do in all this silence. Our housing complex is very quiet. Usually, I hear the constant sound of flip flops against the pavement, but not this weekend. The silence is kind of unnerving.
