Dinner in Valkenburg

Cyriel took the Kates to dinner in Valkenburg tonight. We had a lovely meal, but it was the company that truly made the evening.

Kate and I left Angela's apartment about 15 minutes before 7 p.m. when we were to meet Cyriel at the Maastricht train station. He beat us there and was waiting for us in his cool new Audi to drive us to dinner.

We talked about a little of everything during dinner (to include this woman named Missy who happened to be a part of our discussion on many accounts). It was so delightful to just sit and enjoy the evening. Cyriel drove us back to Maastricht after dinner at we arrived at the apartment a after 10 p.m. - Angela had also returned from dinner.

The three girls talked in the kitchen for a while before Angela went up to bed and now Kate and I have to figure out how in the heck we are going to pack up everything we've bought to mail to ourselves tomorrow.

On our mini shopping trip to H&M in Maastricht this evening I did indeed find the dress I had seen in London, the matching black jacket, and a navy blue coat that looks like Madeline's from the children's books.

We are meeting my friend Britni in the morning. I went to AFNORTH with her and she is still living here with her two children. There's just a bit more to pick up (mainly grocery items to mail) and then we're back to London to spend the night in Surrey before we are back in Raleighwood once again. Does this really have to end?

Hi Kates,

I had a really good time last night, it was nice you found time to have dinner with me between all that shopping you 'HAD' to do.

Enjoy your last day in Europe and say hi to everybody in America when you get home.

Have a super last day and have a safe trip home.
