That is a wonderful piece of history and an even better story. You and your Wife were so lucky, I hope you had a wonderful time on the holiday and tour!

Did you snap any pictures?

What a lovely memory to have of your vacation.

Reading that letter, has a somewhat, old fashioned charm about it. Something which is missing these days.

Thank you for sharing your story.
