Default Thanksgiving Travel

Anyone doing anything 'fun' in the way of travel over Thanksgiving?

We enjoyed Madrid over this past New Year that we are headed to Paris for 5-days over Thanksgiving. Think they will have turkey with all the trimmings? Will miss it, but am guessing we'll find something to tide us over.

Not exactly long-distance travel, but we will go to Seattle for a couple of days and see Taj Mahal. He’s a bit of a Thanksgiving tradition, he’s been coming to Seattle to play several days over Thanksgiving for 30 or more years now.

No long distance travel this year for us.

We're hosting. I don't like turkey so I'm making rack of lamb sous vide as the main course.

Staying put in our new home. Of the last 100 Days, we have been on the road for 75 Days... One daughter and son-in-law are coming. Looking forward to it.

My wife is two months away from delivering kid #5, so we're hunkering down for the holidays this year. We usually go to Seattle to spend time with my in-laws, but not this time.

We are relaxing in our Airstream in Grayton Beach, Florida this week. We will drive back to TN on Saturday & Sunday, stay one night at home and then drive back to Cocoa Beach on the east coast of Florida for Thanksgiving. Florida road-trippin' this year.

No travel plans other than a short shuffle on Friday to pick up the annual Beaujolais Nouveau.

Annual tradition wife and have since 1983. She usually takes one sip from her glass, says "it's all yours". Fine by me as I take my glass to the study, break out the headphones and listen to whatever the wine moves me to. Sublime.
