So how do they celebrate Thanksgiving in Costa Rica?

I won’t mention who asked us this question, but in case you’re wondering the same thing…..the answer is that they don’t. The Mayflower never made it this far south. Lucky for us, however, there are plenty of Americans here, and we were able to get together and have a great Thanksgiving on Thursday night (after going to school of course). IMB provided turkeys, and everyone made their favorite sides and desserts. There were tons of great food! Here are some pictures…

Avalyn took this picture. I think I was so stuffed I couldn’t stand up.
