Christmas Eve in Cambridge
I did get to see the choristers come across from their school. I thought to listen to the service from outside the chapel but it started pouring down rain.
The service is available online here, and it will be played on BBC worldservice.
Merry Christmas!
A Day in London
We also visited Covent Garden and went window shopping on Oxford street. It was all very festive!

Thanksgiving Dinner
Yesterday I had Thanksgiving Dinner for about 20 of my friends! We had all of the tradition delicious items minus pumpkin pie. There is not a pumpkin to be found in

Two especially poignant moments of the evening: Marco (who is currently studying for a PhD at
Best part of the evening: great friends that cleaned up my post-turkey disaster of a kitchen!
