Today we are heading off with Krista and her family to visit with her extended family for Canadian Thanksgiving. We are going into the North and will be staying at her Bother's cottage for the traditional feast. All houses are decorated with pumpkins on their front door steps, and we assumed it was for Halloween in a few weeks. However it seems that Canadian Thanksgiving (for the successful harvest) is this weekend, and we have timed it perfecty to get an invite to the Schaus family celebrations. There have been quite a few discussions in the last days, both in person and over the phone, about who was making what - just like Xmas back home.

We are in line for 2 days of eating with pancakes, Canadian bacon, maple syrup, turkey, ham, and pumpkin pie being on the menu.
