Cambridge and Thanksgiving

On November 10th, I got on a train at 7:40 a.m. to Cambridge, to visit my good friend Rachel Reckin, who I hadn't seen in over two years. She showed me the colleges, and libraries, and chapels that may as well have been cathedrals, and it was just really good to get to spend a couple of days with her :) Then I went about life as usual, the weekend before last I built a blanket fort, which is pretty impressive, actually, and last Thursday, the 23rd of November, was Thanksgiving, and some of the people at the church remembered that, and I thought that was really nice. On Saturday, 7 of us in the U.K. YAGM group got together here in Manchester to celebrate Thaksgiving at Grace's house in Salford...it was the first time I had been to Salford since I've been here, and I was meeting our friend Sarah at the train station and then getting her and I from the train station to Grace's house in Salford....we only got lost for a little bit, but then we found the right bus, and it was fine :) It was a very nice Thanksgiving dinner, with turkey, chicken, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, macaroni and cheese, green beans, and stuffing, and lovely people to share it with. That's my life up to this point, more soon :)

 Inside the King's  College Cathedral or Chapel, I don't remember. I thought this was just a plaque, but nope. It's a gravestone. There's actually someone buried under there.

 Thanksgiving!!!!
