It has thus far been an amazing Thanksgiving. Tim and I got an early start on the day and got student tickets 10th row for The Lion King tonight! We then headed across town about ten minutes to St. Pauls for the 'American mass of Thanksgiving'. The Ambassador for the US gave part of the homily and exclaimed that it is the best day filled with 'the best food, people and sports'...I think everyone is missing American Football today. The cathedral was filled to the brim, thousands of people crammed in wall to wall as the London American community came together to celebrate. The sun has been shining since first thing this morning and came seeping in through the windows of St. Pauls, it was beautiful...London feels so much my home it is wonderful to come together as a community for the holiday.
I am off to class right now, then packing for Rome tomorrow morning. The dining hall is having a full Thanksgiving meal for dinner...and its FREE (my favorite word) so after that Tim and I will be off to The Lion King!!! I'm so excited!
This is a brief note I know, but I want you all to know I'm having a wonderful Thanksgiving and can only hope you have the most amazing day with each other.
As every year, I'm most thankful for you :o)
Lots of love,
xoxo
Kate
PS Hope we'll be skyping later!!!!!

Hey Kate we just got home from the Vineyard and a fine time was had by all. We missed you, Bill and the Irwin gang. To bad internet was down and we could not see your shinning face. I hope the Lion King was awesome, Tom and I saw it in NYC 9 years ago and loved it. I can't wait for details about Rome hope you had a blast. You will be home soon and I hope to come down before you head to Grand Caymon to hear all your adventures first hand. Mom is counting the days and missing you something awful.
Love ya,
Jo, Tom, Nicholas and Caroline
