Hurricane Slava

Perfectly engineered intersection of a number of bodies moving from different directions at subsonic speed had occurred precisely as planned at a certain door at a certain JFK terminal reuniting us with our dear friend Slava Krause who I haven't seen for more than 16 years (Irene saw him in '97). But it was like we parted yesterday. We spent three days and nights non stop catching up on the past and sight seeing the local surroundings and New York. The weather, thankfully, cooperated.

Here is a link to slideshow - all the good pics are from Slava's camera. He has a great photographer eye making even the office buildings look interesting. He was quite fascinated by all the skyscrapers, but he was quick to dismiss Central Park - you should come and see Peterhof, he said...

Energized and pumped by this meet and by our wonderful vacation in France, we are already thinking of new adventures together on either side of the Atlantic.
