Wow, eclectic...can't believe that I am just now finding this thread! Great post. Thanks for taking the time to share with us.

My brother may have already told you, but all four of our Grandparents are Germans from Russia. Oh, and I think that Rory is a distant relative of ours. I would have really loved the food on this tour....yummy...lot's of carbs!

btw, did you get the pm that I tried to send back to you? I'm not very good with this stuff and I hope you got it.
