Lilly got some new kicks because the sales girl told him he looked 10 years younger with them on. Ha ha!! Metcalfe bought some jade. Mrs. Michael bought too much to mention, but she had fun and has almost enough money left to get home. Ms. Hartley on the other hand caused a stir by fainting in the watch section. Too many good buys went straight to her head. The language barrier was most apparent when trying to get to dinner. We resorted to asking a French 14 year old to tell the taxi driver how to get us to the Hard Rock Cafe. Dinner was very American and yummy!!
PS - Mrs. Michael tried a McDonald's cheeseburger and it taste exactly the same as the ones you buy in Verona, Virginia. The manager almost had her arrested for taking pictures in the restaurant.

Sounds like you guys are having fun!!!! Keep us posted!!!
Mike, the grey in your mustache is counteracting the 10 years that the shoes are taking off, ha. Jackie, wonder what Tom would say about fainting prior to a marathon? I'm sure it will go in the book. Hope y'all have a good time and a safe trip, it's the opportunity of a lifetime.
