Sibylle, Wonderful that your family celebrated Thanksgiving...you certainly have a very international lifestyle! Very very interesting your comments about "the godly calvinist immigrants who invented Thanksgiving!!". I hadn't thought of that link. Brian
After seven years in Geneva/French speaking Switzerland, my husband, son and I moved to Stuttgart area. This is the area of my childhood and youth. I know many places already, but there is so much to rediscover and to discover for the first time: towns, forests, lakes, restaurants, cafés and Stuttgart's urban life.
My husband and I love to join the annual Thanksgiving celebration at the American International Women's Club. It's always a very warm, welcoming and cosy atmosphere with lovely decorations, homemade food and nice fellowship.
Yesterday we even learnt from a speech that was hold how very connected Geneva and the American Thanksgiving really are ...Geneva, the city of Calvin ... and the godly calvinist immigrants who invented Thanksgiving!!
So Geneva is one of THE places to celebrate Thanksgiving ... and it's a great opportunity to be thankful for all the good things we receive - each year, each day.
