Well, survived another night of drinking with the dozen of us still survivng the weekend, and toasting AnnaS birthday party last night/this morning. Woke up at 10am ... this is the life!

Several of us yesterday afternoon/evening with Bernie's urging went by train to Cologne to visit the beautiful old Cathedral. We used a little known German ticketing secret (that Bernie may or may not have accidentally mentioned and paid ZERO fare in each direction.) Now THAT is a fare even Priceline can't beat!

We went shopping along the Konigsallee, and fly out soon in C on DUS-ORD with Miletex and AnnaS on United. Hope Miletex knows the crew on THIS flight too! Drinking all that Dom Perignon gets to be habit forming. Then to SFO and SYD and ADL ... 30 hours of straight flying before I get back. All that flying on One Systemwide upgrade ... thank you United.

Thaks again for translating the menus last night Bernie and picking another couple of great places .... none of us would have had a clue otherwise what we about to order!!

And also a "thank you" for the well thought out and fascinating Dusseldorf goodie bags we all received. What a lovely thought from the "Alt Committee." The Asprins in there were the first things used, I am here to tell you.
