THANKSGIVING

Last week, Farrah - an exchange student from America - told us something about Thanksgiving in the United States. It was very interesting to hear about how the Americans celebrate their special day.

In the USA Thanksgiving is a holiday and the biggest family festival in the year as well. Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November. The highlight of this day is a big dinner with the whole family. A typical Thanksgiving-meal is made out of a pumpkin soup, a big turkey and cranberry-creme.

The day after Thanksgiving is called black friday. The stores open very early in the morning an grant big discounts.

Here you can see some situations of this day.

In my opinion Thanksgiving is a very beautiful tradition, because the whole family spends time with each other. :)
