A crisp, chilly day at the U.N. - the sun is peeking in and out of clouds! Hosted by Hello

Day at the U.N.

Thanks to a friend's invitation I was a guest for a special visit at the U.N. to view the "Auschwitz " exhibit , followed by a luncheon in the Delegates' dining lounge.

The exhibit is an interesting mixture of video presentation, with large black and white photographs on display, together with ax excellent collection of penciled drawings made by a Russian soldier on letterhead paper of the German Commandant of the camp, at the time of liberation!

The large dining lounge overlooking the East river is filled with people of all sorts, chatting and moving about to serve themselves at the buffet tables, displaying a variety of international dishes. The whole place offers a very relaxed atmosphere with excellent food and a great view.

Spring is coming!

.......the Christmas present bloomed just in time for Valentine's Day!

Busy February

This is quite a busy month. Most of the action takes place even without me leaving my desk or residence. Heavy communication is taking place , mostly electronically, and by phone. Bottom line: my presence is needed overseas, and traveling plans are in the works again.....

Meantime, I am trying to squeeze in a few sessions of physical therapy for my aching neck and shoulders, which have impaired my movements a lot in the past few months. Got to be in good physical shape to hop another plane and cross the Atlantic again!
