Another good bye...

A city so nice,
They named it twice...New York, New York...
Good bye Big Apple...And good bye Corina...Be good!!!
Tomorrow we are leaving for our trip to west coast: San Francisco, Santa Barbara, Simi Valley, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Sedona, Death Valley and Yosemite Park....It will be interesting, but sad... after that our staying in US will come to an end. In our way back to Bucharest we will stop in Dublin and that's all!!!
Why all good things come to an end to quickly?

Last weekend...

Good bye Long Island!!!
For the last time, yesterday, we went to Peacock residence, for the "Fig Festival", as everybody was joking around. We picked fresh figs from Billy's trees and ate them with Gorgonzola cheese and presuto. Yam! Afterwards we had dinner, Maureen's excellent side dishes and Billy's barbecued stakes. For the desert (tiramisu cake and rhubarb sauce) we went outside and gathered around a bonfire, it was perfect as the night was coming and the weather was a bit chilly. We reminisced about good old times, Kevin even sang a song from his boy scouts years, while we were roasting marshmallows. Nice company and friendly atmosphere..Excellent!!!
Unfortunately, the day came to an end and when we said our last good bye Billy had tears in his eyes...What a beautiful family!!!
He promised though, to come visit us in Bucharest along with Corina and Kevin, this coming Christmas....Maureen hates flying, so she said that she is waiting for us to come back, which I don't mind at all!!!
Today, we will meet with with our friends, we invited them over to us for a pizza and a good bye drink. Everything now is bitter-sweet...almost 20 years is not easy to leave behind...
PS: The ad-hoc party was fun, they brought a cake with a dedication "Adio...dar raman cu tine".
That's all she wrote! There is nothing else left to say...
