As you know, the usual schedule was completely disrupted excitement and preparation for our meeting – the terms of flying straw hats elderly ladies were chosen outfits, powdered cheeks and great grandfathers tease their beards and corrected medals. A wonderful experience and a great atmosphere created by the smiles that never grow old.”
