The luncheon

Now this was really impressive. As soon as I got to the building I knew something was special.  Private elevator to the penthouse, stepped out, ohhhh I was in heaven.  Come to find out it is the residence of the Australian Embassador.  His wife was sponsoring the benefit.  She is very gracious .  It was really fun.  I new another few gals from another group I used to belong to, it was nice to see them again. Now you'll love this,  I was sitting there talking to this lady and come to find out that she is with the American Embassy (wife of top security guy here... ) she 's from virginia.  We had a great talk and will get together again.  There was a raffle and I won a cute little candle holder ... food was out of this world with specialties from many countries...


Anyway, it's so good to get out and do something different , and getting to speak in English and meet some gals is really wonderful.  Just wanted to share.
