Olga,
It was nice to hear from you and get the list of e-mails. I wanted to thank you and Irina especially for your help and friendship while I was in Odessa. Both of you came to the rescues at different times for me, and because of that all went very smoothly. In fact it went so smooth I am planning on returning to Odessa the end of August to see the one lady (Angelina) and her daughter for a couple of weeks.
I have printed up some extra copies of some nice pictures I took of both you and Irina, and would like to go ahead and send them to you. Do I just send them to the Moscow Office? Whatever you say is best I will do, as I said before both of you were invaluable at times to me.
When I was getting on the plane in New York to start the tour, I wondered what I was doing. Had I gone nuts? Just a couple days after I was there, I realized it was the smartest thing I had ever done for myself. I would recommend it to anyone in America who is as frustrated with the dating scene here as I was. I am hoping things work out with Angelina, but if not expect me on another tour, as I am sure I could never date an American woman after meeting the wonderful ladies I met on the tour. Even the ones I just talked to at socials or met on the street were nice, personable and caring.
The day we departed, all I kept thinking about was coming back to Odessa.
Hope to see you and Irina again someday, so I can say thank you again in person. |
