Thanksgiving at the Beach




Doug & I celebrated thanksgiving on Maracas beach.

We filled the cooler with everything we would need for the day and decided to relax on the beach and in the sea. The water was lovely and warm, we had a few showers as it is still rainy season here, in between the sun was shining with a gentle breeze to keep us cooled down.

We met a group of people who are with the Australian High Commission, one of whom previously lived in Calgary and knew it was Canadian thanksgiving weekend. We chatted for ages and even exchanged emails with one person who is involved with the Canadian Womens Club (she was adopted as the Ausralians don't have a club). Hopefully this may open some doors for me to get to know some more Canadians living in T&T.

We arrived home about 5pm tired out from all the sun and fun we had had. A perfect way to spend thanksgiving. There was just one thing missing though...............Family.
