The remains of a dinner where fewer came than expected, and we over-planned our courses. Traditional Thanksgiving dinner of turkey, gravy, stuffing, mashed potatoes, carrots, corn, peas, cranberry sauce (both kinds), ... and root beer.

“You won’t be disappointed if you don’t have expectations”. I’m sure a lot of us have heard or read this somewhere. I have a perfect story to resonate with this.
I was to travel to Sao Paulo, Brazil on work a few months ago and my excitement knew no bounds. I was traveling alone, and after a lot of thought(and safety concerns), I decided to go to Rio for the weekend. My brazilian friend gave me a list of things to see and do, and also mentioned it would be springtime, so the weather would be beautiful (his exact words - not too hot, so it will be perfect). Bags packed for sun, sand and glory, I was all set for a perfect weekend by the copacabana beach.
When I landed in Rio, I was greeted by some crazy cumulonimbus clouds, in simpler terms - storm clouds. I saw a ray of hope when the forecast said mild clouds the next day and set off on a day tour to see the famous Christ the Redeemer statue and experience the breathtaking views from atop the Corcovado mountain. This is what I saw when I got there, a faint figure of the Jesus statue almost hidden by the clouds and 0 visibility (so 0 views). The rain literally washed away all my expectations of that perfect sunny weekend in Rio :(
