Yesterday's training class was interesting, not because of the subject matter, nor the teacher, but because all of the attendees were so young. I felt like Methuselah. It was also interesting to watch the dynamic among the group - what I would have called "flirtatious behavior" but which I suspect they would have considered normal. It truly is a changing world.

elwing received a brief e-mail message from our sons - they were staying at a hostel in Berlin. The hostel had Internet access so they decided to let us know they were doing OK.

But what did you call the class? Did you use the possessive or adjectival form?

Given my lack of knowledge about my own travel plans, you'll be surprised to hear that I actually know this. They flew from Louisville to Cleveland, and then from Cleveland to London (Heathrow). They bummed around London for two days, then took the Chunnel to France and then to Brussels. From there it was Amsterdam, and then Berlin.

Good for you, ear!

They just started the trip last week, right? They've been covering a lot of ground!

No, with each other.
