"White Friday" in Romania - Nov. 25, 2011











On Thursday November 24, we celebrated a quiet Thanksgiving Day at home, eating too much turkey and dressing and just having an afternoon of rest and relaxing, much the same as many of you did in America. Then all the peace and quiet disappears and you wake up to the chaos of "Black Friday" as it is called in America. The biggest shopping day of the year. Well in Romania neither Thanksgiving or Black Friday are celebrated, but we did wake up to a cold "White Friday" as you can see from the pictures above. This is ice on the trees and ground, it is not snow. As I write this the temperature is 20 degrees Fahrenheit. It is beautiful when you are on the inside looking out, but not so great when you are outside in it. We hope everyone had a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving and hopefully this year we can all remember to be thankful every day for the many blessings our Heavenly Father bestows upon us all, each and every day of our lives.
