Meet the bosses luncheon

We had a nice lunch with the ‘bosses’ on Sunday. They really know how to put a lunch together. Once it was over they had brought out 15-20 different dishes. It was very informal with a lot of toasting. Everyone raises their glasses, the toast is given, then everyone taps the lazy susan with their glasses, and down it goes.
Marianne and I did some exploring around the city on Sunday afternoon. The air was a little clearer so we took advantage of it. Marianne got a flat tire along the way, but we were lucky because there was a bicycle repair guy up ahead on the sidewalk. Not sure if that was a coincidence or not. These bike repair guys are all over the city. You're never far from one. The bikes are rusty and rickity. No self-respecting 12 yr old in the US, or China for that matter, would be caught dead on one. But they work for the most part so we'll use them.
We made it back to the campus without further problems, which was good because I was hungry.
