The next event was lunch upstairs where you could order from the left or right side of the menu and I had an omelette that could not compete with the meal of the day before while Rob had this sandwich Linda had this meal with 2 different kinds of potatoes Anne had the filet Irv had the New Yorker Sylvia had the Caesar salad topped with salmon and Dan had his sandwich all well served by Aaron the waiter. For dessert, the specialty was this swan dish that didn't taste nearly as good as it looked though some chose to have cookies instead.

After lunch, we repaired to their apartment where Rob Anne Dansyl and Irv posed for pictures and someone took this picture of Linda and me managing to capture us despite lighting problems. There was more food including this plate of fresh fruit and this plate of dried fruit. The cookies Linda had brought looked better once they were unwrapped but nothing could compete with the chocolates from Australia, not even the nuts and flakes the typically California fare. Despite all of the fingerprints, we decided to subdivide the Australian chocolate to make sure it tasted as good as it looked. It had a filling with a liqueur taste and a hint of cherry. And, as is always the case, pictures show a better taste than reality.

Despite the day of eating, we still had to have dinner. We observed that we hadn't been outside all day and so decided to walk to the Chinese restaurant around the corner and across the street. The menu had many fine offerings and after I got my beer Larry Janet Dan and Sylvia were ready to read the offerings so that we could choose a meal. We started with Moo Shu vegetables which the waitress prepared at our table to yield this first one while Dan took another picture of her work to get the sauce and a different angle on the meal. The rest of the meal was the sizzling dish the specialty shrimp dish (that cost twice as much) General Ts'o chicken bean curd with excellent mushrooms and this accompanying hot sauce and two kinds of rice, fried and steamed. On the way back we recorded the flags on the apartment next door where the guy with the MS from Princeton lives and the name plate and mezzuzah on apartment 206. I was sad to get up the next morning and head to the airport for the next leg of the trip. It had been a very nice visit.
