It was such a nice time, just hanging out, chatting, singing songs, and chatting some more. I don't know if one automatically becomes royal when organizing an event, if, then special thanks to Queen Lili, for putting us up and having everything discretely but tightly organized. Just thanks to all, and thanks to those who couldn't come but sent us their greetings. I hope I can organize a similar thing some day, and perhaps advance to Princess Bebe. I will force Oddmund to come along and be Prince OddOdd!
