Thanksgiving at the Marriot, Hongqiao
The food is awesome and the cost is too, but hey where else are you going to get a Turkey in Shanghai, eh?
We will be stuffed tonight!!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
At the Shanghai Hong Qiao Marriott (Hong Qiao is the "old" airport that I just flew in to from Beijing - now used for domestic flights).
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
How was it, Drew?
The worst part of going to thanksgiving dinner at someone else's house is that you don't get to have a turkey sandwich the next day. And I am hungry for a turkey sandwich! Oat meal will have to do.
Hey you should be here. Ulf has fired up the sauna 4 times now. It is marvelous.
No venison in the freezer yet and that is a sad thing.
Hope you are well. Love Pat

HEY PAT!!
Wish I was there too - those saunas are awesome!! grin Glad to hear you're using it!!
I ate too much at the Marriott - but didn't have a 75 yuan ($11) glass of wine like a colleague of mine did!!! Laughing!
Ate TONS of sashimi, oysters, clams, crab ... and that was the appetizer!! Two plates full, plus I also got desert at the beginning!!! Good thing I did too or the pumpkin pie would have been gone AND YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE PIE!!! grin!
Then a plate of ham, beef medallions, mashed potatoes, etc. etc. Then a plate of turkey and they brought turkey to our table so another there. They also brought nicely cooked brussel sprouts (I know - must be one of the only ones on the planet that like them!), carrots, mashed potatoes, etc.
OH - then Hagen Daaz with sprinkles at the end!!! Oh my goodness!! grinning WILDLY!!!
GOOD LUCK ON THE DEER HUNTING!!!
