germany, mrgrant and friday turkey

We're still not sure if Steve was coming to visit us or drink beer in Dublin, but we know he managed to do both and most importantly he was here for Thanksgiving. We celebrated Thanksgiving on Friday since Joe was in Germany for work where he had his own feast.

In celebration of the team's work, the client hosted a feast worthy of a US Thanksgiving. A giant wooden table for almost 30 people, endless wine and courses and of course an American as an honored guest on Thanksgiving day.

Thanksgiving Friday involved lots of great food...I made my first Duck...it was great they tell me, but I still don't think they were truthful about the sauce...it was way too salty. In addition to Steve, Leo and Francesco joined us. Friends of my friend Michelle from back in the states, they really seemed to enjoy the meal and the company.

Steve left Sunday morning and Joe and I headed to the airport a couple of hours later for Barcelona.
