Let’s test your Thanksgiving knowledge.  Are the following sentences true or false?

1.  The first Thanksgiving was in 1621 and the pilgrims celebrated it every year thereafter.

2.  The original Thanksgiving feast took place on the fourth Thursday of November.

3.  The pilgrims wore only black and white clothing. They had buckles on their hats, garments, and shoes.

4.  The pilgrims brought furniture with them on the Mayflower.

5.    The Mayflower was headed for Virginia, but due to a navigational mistake it ended up in Cape Cod Massachusetts.

It might surprise you, but the correct answer to all of these questions is false.  Learn more about the origin of the Thanksgiving Holiday by going to http://www.history.com/content/thanksgiving/mayflower-myths,

We hope you have a great day with family and friends and celebrate this great country we live in.

Happy Thanksgiving from everyone at Coldwell Banker Island Living!
