Hey Rory,
finally i send you the picture of our evening. Again thank you very much for that invitation
and for your gifts. This was one of the nicest evenings in Chicago, I really wished I would have more time. But I know for
sure that I will come back again to visit you, Chicago and especially the great lakes!
I have allready another german PO who will join me next time. I would love to come to your german fest
or the german parade this year but yet I do not know if I can manage it. But I will have it on my agenda for next year! ;o)
I
have no email adress from Hans and Roger. So please send Roger my regards and thanks for the boattrip that was awesome, and
we were lucky with the weather.
And also to Hans for the visit of the 17th. district police station.
Greetings
from Germany
yours Marcus
