Thanksgiving on Nevis

I am half American (on my mother’s side) and half Canadian (on my father’s side, so my family celebrates both Thanksgivings. This year we spent American Thanksgiving on Nevis and had lots of fun and delicious food.  Though we were hoping that my grandmother would be here too so we could celebrate together.

Instead of Champagne, my brothers and I had sparkling cider,
