Great Mosque doorway

BMW can't try to get the trunk open until Saturday. I managed to unpack one more box in the kitchen (only 10 to go!). We can't cook our turkey because we haven't yet found our large roasting pan. We also can't make our usual turkey recipe when we do find it because it calls for white wine, Madeira and pancetta ;-). But a Happy Thanksgiving to all!

This interesting doorway is located next to this group of windows:

Too bad you can't celebrate Thanksgiving on Thanksgiving, but when you eventually do I'm sure you will be VERY grateful!

Lovely capture of the doorway with its precise geometric designs lit up from the inner light.V
Happy Thanksgiving.Sounds as if you will have to have a substitute festival meal and save the turkey for another time.

You could become a special importer of Thanksgiving Sauce, it would probably sell very well
