Get out and go: Events around the world (November 25-30)

If you're living in America, you know what's happening this Thursday. For those of you who aren't in New York to catch the Thanksgiving Day Parade, there are other awesome activities going on this weekend. If you're close and have time, then you have no excuse to get out and go!
  • Charlotte - The Carolinas Thanksgiving Day Parade will be held this Thursday, November 26. This 62th annual parade is one of the largest get togethers of Carolinians that takes place during the year.
  • Brunei - Brunei's annual Festival of Sacrifice will be held this Friday, November 27. This is also known as Hari Raya Korban or Hari Raya Aidiladha. Goats and cows are sacrificed to commemorate the actions of the Islamic Prophet Ibrahim. The meat is then distributed among relatives, friends and the less fortunate.
  • England - The Draught for Drought Winter Beer Festival will be held at the New Inn in Witney from November 26-29. The festival will have an extensive selection of ales, traditional cuisine, and live entertainment. The event is a benefit for the African Children's Fund's "Draught for Drought" program. The proceeds help East African communities to find sustainable ways of capturing and storing water.
If you make it to one of these events, let us know how it was, or if you know of an event that's coming up, please let us know and we'll be sure to include it in the next "Get out and go" round-up.
