Meeting 35 seniors in Florida was a most wonderful experience.
There were so many warm and kind people.
We had exchanged pictures of each other now we could see each other face to face, give a
hug and hear our voices.
We shared meals with each other and went on outings in the St. Petersburg area.
The weather was beautiful, like Swedish summertime in February.
One of the highlights of the gathering was a cruise around St. Petersburg Bay on a large
paddle steamer where we were entertained by a Dixieland Jazz band during lunch.
It was quite a wonder to pick ripe oranges from the trees in Alice B's garden (in
February). Another highlight was the sumpteous buffet in Alice's home. It was my pleasure
to bring some smoked salmon from Katthammarsviks smokery which was enjoyed by all.
