After a two-month voyage they landed at in icy November, what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts. During their first winter, over half of the settlers died of starvation or epidemics. With the help of the Indians, the settlers learned to how to fish, farm, and hunt.All summer long they waited for the harvests with great anxiety, At last, they harvested in Autumn.And therefore it was decided that a day of thanksgiving to the Lord be fixed.So they gathered together to celebrate the harvests with the Indians. From then on, they celebrate the Thanksgiving Day every year on the 4th Thursday of November!The big family dinner is planned months ahead. On the dinner table, people will find apples, oranges, chestnuts, walnuts and grapes. The best and most attractive among them are roast turkey and pumpkin pie.
