Let's start a thread where everyone says a couple things that they are thankful for. I'll begin:

 

I am thankful for my family, my friends, and cruising!!!

I am also thankful for my family friends, health and that Mom beat stage 4 cancer, that was the best early christmas present I got. Lets also remember all the men and women stationed around the world keeping our country safe. A happy Thanksgiving to all of you and your families:D :D :D

OH I think you are bing a bit hard on the previous poster. I don't think he/she meant you just had to be American more the opposite. As you can see I am from Scotland too and we don't really celebrate thanksgiving in the way the Americans do but yes we still give thanks for what we have got. She was merely pointing out that no matter what colout or creed they are Americans can all come to gether on this holiday.

I know. I was just being pedantic. The very fact that we can interact on this site means that we are cruisers and therefore have lots to be thankful for. I wish everyone a happy and peaceful festive season.

I'm thankful for my family and friends, all of whom are in reasonably good health, a safe and warm home, clothes on my back, food on the table, both of us working and some peace in my life after several turbulent years. Oh, and chocolate! ;)

[wolfcathorse]

I'm thankful I have the priveledge to openly give thanks and worship to my God.

[coast2coast]

I am thankful that my parents flew out from CA to be with me, DH, and DD as we celebrated our first Thanksgiving on the beautiful Crystal Coast of North Carolina!

[superjerryw]

I'm thankful for good health, family and friends and the opportunity to have cruised as many times as I have.

[justwaiting]

I am thankful that my kids could be here today (even when I had to do all the work), good health, friends and family.

I'd like to wish everyone a safe and happy holiday weekend.

I am thankful for my faith, for all those who settled this country and made it great, and for those who are fighting to keep it that way.

I agree Deb and with a the good news that my Mom's breast cancer scare is over, is one more blessing.:D

[Castle Knights]

Hi,

I am thankful for my loving husband, two great kids, and our health and happiness. God Bless, Deb- Indiana :)

[breal6]

Besides all the usual family health etc stuff, I'm thankful I didn't eat turkey, lol. I'm especially thankful to that first person who looked at an ugly lobster and said "Hmmmmmm, I think I'll try this",:D

[Broch]

thanks for misunderstanding and then understanding.

 

Your welcome. Have a nice weekend

[Grumm]

thanks for misunderstanding and then understanding.

 

Sincerest apologies. Broch was not at fault at all. As I said, I was being pedantic and had my tongue firmly in my cheek. Thanks for you post. It's always great to meet with our American and Canadian friends and allies on cruises. To echo Broch, have a great weekend.

right back at ya!!:)

right back at ya!!:)

 

I see that you are going on Explorer of the Seas next year and as you can see so are we. 30th April. It would be a great coincedence if you were on the same cruise. Speaking about giving thanks, George Best the famous Irish footballer who once played in the States and for Manchester United died to day and it is sad to think that he seems to be remembered more for his fight against alcoholism rather than the footballing genius that he was. I just give thanks and there be for the grace of god, that I can enjoy a drink without being dependent on it.

[cruzobsessed]

hey broch

yes that would've been a nice coincidence. where are you cruising to? what has been your cruising experience? ( i know i know off topic completely). but that's another thing to be thankful for.... this website where we can go off topic!!!:D
