Anniversary Day
 
Up early for an early morning ride to the airport.  Said goodbye to our guide May and our driver ‘Mr. Money’.  Then an 11 hour flight to Paris during which Jerry slept most of the way.  When we got to the hotel we found that Albert and Sylvia Meilhaus had already checked in.  (Albert Meilhaus is our German distributor and we have been friends for over 25 years.)  We had chosen this hotel because Jerry had used it several times when on business trips.  Small rooms but a great location by the Arc de Triomphe.  After exchanging gifts at the hotel (They got travel souvenirs, Kathy got a bouquet of flowers) we went to a small restaurant that Albert had found for dinner.  Great food, elegant presentations, a bottle of ‘81 Haut Brion wine that Albert had brought from his wine cellar and a special Happy Anniversary dessert.  Thank you Albert and Sylvia for hosting the dinner and for making our anniversary a special night.
