Like General MacArthur . . .

We have returned . . .from the lake.

However, there was no Bataan death march, no Battle Of Corregidor, no naval action at Surigao Strait.

There was, instead, lots of food and lots of fun (and lots of peace and quiet, too).

Andrew and I depart for Munich on Thursday.

Like General MacArthur, we shall return . . .on August 10.
