Back in the USA

The trip back on the plane was uneventful. Val and crew met us at the gate in Dallas. I was startled at Robert's appearance as he seems to have changed the most in 7 months. He looks almost as tall as Bill, but is maybe only about 5' 8". His shoulders are broader and his wispy mustache is a bit heavier. Jasmine and Ben are taller also and Ben is an engaging chatterer. We went for a picnic in a park near to the airport. The only hitch was that we had not checked the Terminal of the Sacramento flight and reconfirmed the time. So William was probably about the last person on the flight. I am laying over in Dallas for a week to visit Valerie. Now I am going to go back in time and post for our last 2 days in Paris as we were in a hotel without reliable internet.
