Kate and Dad had a great time in Lexington



Dad and I had such a good time in Kentucky. We were honored to be able to be a part of Big Mike's 50th. The Hoenscheid's are are lot of fun and a bit hard to keep up with. On Saturday Dad did a double header and we went to the races at Keenland and then he headed off for tailgating with Rob before the UK football game.

Aunt Mary Ann truly is the "Greatest" hostess, she toured us all over town and oganized bourbon tasting and scenic rides through the horse farm country.

On this trip I am happy to report I also tasted my first Penn Station sandwich. Mike's East Coast Style subs are delicious.

Love to all,

Kate

Paula Auntie and Mary Auntie in India


They've arrived. Paula and Mary are now in the midst of discovering India. Friday was spent on a taxi tour of Chennai. They visited the Basilica of St. Thomas, Spensers Shopping Mall, St. Thomas Mount (where he supposedly was martyred), the City Centre, a brand new shopping mall, and the dentist, where Paula had her teeth cleaned by a top notch dentist for less than $20. All went well until the air conditioning went on the fritz midway through the tour. But they survived.
On the agenda, an Indian breakfast, dinner with the Barnetts and Bill, and then on Sunday they will be whisked away to Pondicherry.
Watch this space for further adventures.
