Farewell dinner

Last night Ramin's former management team and their spouses came to our home for a farewell dinner.

Visit Hangzhou

During May 30 - June 2 we visited Hangzhou in China. Ramin has lived in this city for one year during 1994-1995 and has maintained good contact with his Chinese family there - the family where he lived for most of the year. It was Norah's first visit to China.

"Banana diplomacy"; where Norah was a bit shy and distant at first, this all changed when a banana was offered
Norah moved closer bite after bite...
