Day 38
What a day! Lorayne was supposed to read at church this morning, but Eileen's car was parked behind her's and she thought she couldn't get out. She didn't know the keys were in the car. What's a girl to do? She started preparing our eggs Benedict breakfast. Justin and I popped the cork on the bottle of Taittinger champagne we bought in Reims at Memorial Day. Purchased for the sole purpose of celebrating our retirement, it was perfect to be able to celebrate with Lorayne. Ken and Eileen joined us shortly for a long, liquid brunch. ( Funny how Lorayne and I have tended to do this over the years.)We tried to pack and sort through our "stuff" during the afternoon. (This task seemed especially difficult as we just needed to talk and then we needed to take a nap.) We would be travelling by train from Mons to Kaiserslautern which meant we needed to consolidate and lessen the load. Justin did a bit of grooming with Gemma before we headed back to Ken and Eileen's for a dinner of Chile Verde. I need to get Ken's recipe!
