I found this old slide recently. It was a very windy morning 53 years ago waiting to board the new 747 Jumbo jet that would take us straight to Paris for the beginning of our six week European honeymoon. The first week was spent in Paris in a charming little hotel on the Left Bank.. How lucky we were! Gary was a 3rd year medical student so we were poor but he had 6 weeks of holiday. We slept on trains, lived on french bread, cheese and good enough red wine. We swam in the Spanish, French and Italian Riviera. I dont know how many thousands of miles we covered by train! Our guide was Europe on $5 a day. Most importantly Gary got to meet all my family in Hungary!
Anniversaries don’t get easier but I’m focusing on recalling all the memories I can🩷
