Last year around Thanksgiving I was in an Airbnb in Honolulu. 3 rooms. I had the house to myself Thanksgiving weekend itself. Makes sense, right? Americans are home with their family or something.
Not this year. Despite the pandemic, we have a full house, with the last two rooms being filled in the past 30 minutes. (It's 8PM as I type.) Who the hell is traveling on Thanksgiving evening? Non-Americans, maybe. They're white, but I don't know more than that.
And of course full house means one (or two?) of them is *upstairs* whence I can hear every step.
