Wednesday 11/27-Saturday 11/30/02 **LOTS of pictures added since 1st published!
Dad & Elsie arrived @ 1:00pm on Wed. We hadn’t been anywhere yet, so we went on a driving tour with Dick to pick up the smoked turkey & drive by their old Hampton house. We’d got a late start, so it was dark soon.**
**Karin & Dick took us all out to eat at their favorite waterside restaurant for some fantastic seafood Wednesday night.
Thursday was mainly food prep for Thanksgiving dinner, which was targeted for 4pm & we sat down @ 7:15. Eat and go to bed! Everything was fabulous; loads of great food. The deep-fried turkey was a success for the 2nd year, although I didn’t think it tasted better or worse than an oven-baked turkey, so we’ll probably stick with the traditional method.

**Karin & Dick took us out on a driving tour of the naval base, and some of the interesting sites in that area
then Saturday we took an afternoon tour of Smithfield and squeezed in a 1 hour ride on “Pristina”, their boat.
