We are together again!

Jeff finally arrived late Monday
evening in Metz.  After making
four trips (not that I'm counting)
to the train station I finally saw
the bearded fella.  He had a
horrendous trip;  delays, re-routes,
lost baggage.  He left Roanoke
at 4 p.m and didn't arrive here until
11 p.m the next day.  But that is
history, he is here safe and sound
and sleeping!  A lot!  We all went
out the the Canadian restaurant in Metz
last night....seems to be a tradition now,
take the visitor to the Canadian place.
Now that Jeff is here we can get our
tree today.

Alec is a wee bit worried as Jeff's
suitcase hasn't arrived;  the suitcase
with Alec's Christmas gift.  Telling
Alec that his dad is his Christmas gift
doesn't seem to fly with him!
