Jetset Dinner In Zurich
A meeting of the great financial minds of the world took place in Zurich, Switzerland last night where Stefan (Credit Suisse), Deanna (Wealth & Tax Advisory) the “other” Jennifer (Zurich Financial), Soenke (Lufthansa… ok so not financial…but…), and me (Crawford international CPA and Professional Traveler) met for a “Global Summit” to discuss international economies, cross-border transactions, secret unnumbered Swiss bank accounts, and the effect of the strong Euro on the pocketbooks of all Americans trying to have a nice cheap European vacation!
Ok actually we didn’t really talk much about any of that, but we did cover other very important topics like… shopping for underwear in Zurich, where to find the best margaritas in Southern California, Swiss mountain-man wrestling, body painting, & where to buy proper tortilla chips in Europe (we still don’t have the answer to that).
Deanna had arrived in Europe from LA earlier that day and was looking suspiciously rested, glowing, & fashionable. Why can’t *I* ever pull that off when I get to Europe?! I usually look and feel like a truck just ran over me!
[Note that this dinner included a reunion of 3 of the original Paris People ! ]
In the first picture, we have (from left to right) Stefan, Soenke, Deanna, the other Jennifer, & me:
Feeling better after some post-dinner margaritas:

WHAT are margaritas doing in bourdon glasses?! Does Europe not have the correct margarita stem? Maybe they know something the new world doesn’t, highly likely!!
Glad you’re having fun and enjoying life (and possibly getting some work done). BTW, when you come back to this side of the globe, come back through Atlanta!!!

Jennifer,
Help me please! I have been to that lighthouse in Mallorca at the end of the very scary and steep hill, but I cannot recall what the name of the lighthouse or the name of the town is. Can you remind me? Thanks!
