Goodbye to & from SCOT people

Southern California Overseas Teachers, a private organization that looked after us exchange teachers during our stays here in LA. They did it really excellently. We had the opportunity to visit the Museum of Western Heritage, LA Zoo, the Festival of Lights. We went Whale Watching and I can not forget the first Pot-Luck meeting where we all met for the first time. I am very glad that Kylowna passed on the information about them to us. I dare to say we have made friends for life. The two members who we have been meeting on many different occasions during the year are Ruth Bates and Bob Roberts.

This Saturday June, 10 they invited us to a goodbye lunch at Market Cafe in Burbank. Because the weather has been gorgeous for a many days we could sit outside. Market Cafe is a very cozy place overlooking the main street in Burbank. It was our first time in that part of LA and we did love it a lot indeed. The lunch was great as usual and so was the time with SCOT people. We will truly miss them all.

It was also the last time we saw Jef and Ann Fox from UK, hopefully the last time only here in US!

Here is the SCOT group. Bob keeps saying they need new blood, so I wish them many and many new members. Thank you once again for those activities you organized and for the happy memories we have.

Burbank is the part of LA area closer to the mountains and it makes it very pretty. After the lunch we spent a few more minutes cruising the streets there.

This blooming tree caught our eyes. Isn't it beautiful?
