I'm great, having just returned from two weeks in Brasil with several dvds of classic Brasilian films with which I was unacquainted.
Sometime I'm going to have to get back to Europe and I bet it's before you get over here...

  Wright homes and buildings? The collections of all our great modern art museums? The Everglades? Fresh San Francisco sourdough bread? The Oregon coast? Mon ami, see your doctor, get proper sedation. I'm sure Vic would meet your flight at Kennedy!

    With a car.
    Was beautiful.

      wine country.
      Oregon has some good cheese and bread makers, too. And, though truffles aren't in the category as the French, our wild mushrooms are non pareil.

        Thank you. The same if you happen to lost yourself in Germany.
        The Italian truffles are the best.
        As for the bread hard to beat the German dark bread and / or the French white...
        But who knows?

        Thanks. Berlin, for the architecture, and Bavaria for the forests (we love hiking) are on our short list.
        I agree with your bread likes. Brasil used to have terrific French-style bread but for some mysterious reason, it's really hard to find these days. The US had a revolution in bread-making, similar to its awakening to winemaking, years ago with the result that you can find great bread from small producers (just like in France) quite easily. It's been 11 years since my last French visit so I'm going on memory: we really need to visit France sometime soon, too. With our 8-year old, we've been waiting for her to mature a little bit so museums, cathedrals, and all the rest wouldn't be lost upon her.

        Berlin? For the Sony Architectures?
        I will send you my friend Anita who is not only a dentist ( horror ) but also was raised in the capital.
        
        I will meanwhile drink a little Riesling in the place where Goethe did his Schhoppen...
        
        Now bring Victor along and we will make an in France and later in G.
        Leave your estranged wife behind.

        "The Hangover" in mind. Been there, done that. I enjoy traveling with the wife far more than "stag."
        Berlin: the Foster-designed Reichstag. The Pinacotek and other museums along the river (canal?). And many others.
        I'm unfamiliar with Sony but I'll Google.
        I'm familiar with Bretagne and the Loire; next, I'd like to see some of the mountain regions and the Dardogne. Of course, I'd never visit France w/out at least a 4 or 5 days for Paris.

      That's a beautiful part of our country. I spent 30 years in California. There is so much more. Come for a visit.

        I must visit Victor.
        Maybe I will made it in this life time.

        That destination wouldn't be on my itinerary but visit anyway. :-)
