Our Bon Voyage Party




Since we will be saying good-bye soon, we decided to have lots of friends over to help celebrate - and what a fun night it was! Not only were there lots of people around, several of them tried to surreptitiously slip me a few off-limit treats. Unfortunately for me, they were foiled at every turn. But I did have a good time trying.

I did, however, get a very nice present of some perfectly wonderful white ginger blossoms, the kind that are very fragrant and also, as I found out, very delicious.

If you look closely at the picture of me on the couch, you can see me just finishing off a few petals, with the rest of the flowers sitting all the way in the right corner of the picture, just waiting for me to grab them.

And then, the following day, I got to sleep in for a whole extra hour, and they saved me some flowers for breakfast. So there I was, rested, refreshed and well-fed, and getting ready to face the demands of international travel.
