Did c.i. already "surface"?

I got a call from C.I. last night, so he's in town. He plans to be at the Mambo Grill at around 11:45.

I will get there early, joe, to meet c.i. and get a table. What time will you and JPB get there?

I figure between 11:45 and 12:00. Depends upon how fast JPB and I can walk.

I'll look here before I'll leave tomorrow morning (that is around 8pm CST today for you).

Would be nice to read if/where we meet tomorrow. (I will call JPB/JW when I'm at my b&b .... which should be around 2pm tomorrow)

Just finished seeing C.I. and the rest of the gang for lunch. We agreed to try Berghoff's (or what is currently in the Berghoff's space) for dinner tomorrow. I'm sure that, after your long trip from Germany, you'll be in the mood for some German food.

C.I. told us at lunch that he is staying at a real nice place. His room even has a kitchenette.

Walter: I will see you Friday morning at Au Bon Pain. C.I. will also be there.

As do we dahling, as do we!


Walter -- safe and speedy travels. Give me a call when you get in.

joe -- depending on what time you plan on being at the Berghoff, I'm thinking I might be able to come down for dinner. The 4:26 inbound will get me there at 5:10 and I can jump on the 7:35 outbound and still get home in time to pick M up from her class.

Does 5:30(ish) work for everyone?

btw Mrs McTag and I have decided to go on a fly-drive to the States in the autumn, and the intention is to drive coast to coast.

So look out.


And this trip will, of course, include a stop in Chicago, right?

I was thinking 6:00, but 5:30 is fine with me. It really depends on how quickly Walter can recuperate from his flight and make it downtown.

Walter can recuperate quite quickly.

I'll phone you from the neighbourhood shop there: they got a pay telephone.

Since I'll be quite early at the airport, I might consider taking a different plane than the one to Munich.

I'm looking forward to seeing all the guys tomorrow night for dinner.
