German Reunification Day Celebration




We had a pleasant lunch yesterday at the Sorrento, the German Society venue of choice for the Reunification day lunch, speech beforehand with a potted history of the last 17 years. We sat with some new people which was nice. Dieter didnt have much to say to them for a while, but warmed up as the time went by. There was bubbly and a nice buffet lunch with ham on the bone, chicken breasts, salmon and nice salads, and/or veges plus a selection of tarts and fruit salad for dessert. Lovely German chamber music from a string quartet in the background.

We leave for Vietnam on our Intrepid Journey tomorrow night , back Sunday 12 October. Will update blog as I am able, minus photos as I don't know how to put them on to disc yet, just save them in My Pictures.
These pictures are paintings on fabric of Vietnamese people which Dieter bought when he was in Vietnam in the 1960s.
