Dear Arnold, please send me David's contact details. I will arrange a meeting and present him the machine, so that he will know how to operate it properly. Thanks again and all the best.
Did you hear about the earthquake this morning in Greece. This is really terrible, I think that quite a few viligars lost their lifes and many more lost their homes. I am really sad for all of them.
We arrived without any more power back in the village of Sapa and went for dinner right away. We went to bed early, because of the physical exercise and because we did not sleep well a night earlier.
