I'm leaving for Vienna shortly, so I don't have time to fully describe the Thanksgiving festivities last night, but here are the hightlights:
-35+ people gathered at the Hollas' large apartment for a full turkey and stuffing meal. It was potluck with everyone bring their contribution, many of which were traditional foods from their cultures - delicious!
-After the dinner, we played a couple games - celebrity bowl and charades.
-While most people went back home, I went out with a couple friends to a bar that shows American football and got to see the 2nd half of the Cowboys' game and the 1st half of the Colts'.
-Getting home after 3am, it was truly a wonderful Thanksgiving!
-Here are pictures.

Ah, Vienna. Former seat of the Hapsburg empire. Hope you get to visit Schoenbruen - and learn of Maria Theresa, one of the most ingenious and powerful female royals of Europe. And here, a quote of the Hapsburg in German (and Latin) for you, appropriate for a Vienna visit..."Bella gerant alii, tu felix Austria nube." - "Laßt andere Krieg führen, Du, glückliches Österreich, heirate."
