Dinner with Mary and Laurence

Jan is in London, John is in Italy, continues...

Last night I had dinner with Mary and was delighted when our friend Laurence could join us. We went to our favorite Moti Mahal which I am happy to say was packed which means it is catching on and getting popular and, therefore, will likely be around for a while. Mary and Laurence are so fun, we laughed our way through dinner as always.

On our way back to my house we ran into Frances and David who had just had dinner at Le Deuxieme. At last I've lived in London long enough that I run into friends on the street. Yay! I had already gotten to the point that when people ask me for directions I can actually give them, including the names of the streets. Once, someone with a posh British accent said to me, "How could someone with an accent like yours possibly know where Bedford Street is?" Now that's hilarious.

And the third photo is from John in Milan, Italy. He says, "I had lunch at the very-hip Emporio Armani Caffe. The two women in front of me had a very beautiful dog with them, I had to take a photo." It is a lovely dog.
