Out of date, but worth it

The official photo CD of this summer's CIOR Congress in Viterbo Italy is allegedly now available. I haven't seen it yet, but this photo is apparently on it. This was taken at about 3 am, in the Viterbo town square, in the fountain. During the day, this would be rather frowned upon, but at 3 am, you can get away with all kinds of great stuff. If memory serves, this was taken immediately after a rousing rendition of Barrett's Privateers. The Viterbans were no doubt rather glad to see us leave their town.

From left to right, Arif Hirji (a LCol from Toronto, but surprisingly cool despite that handicap), Johan (a public affairs Lt from Denmark - a great guy), "Daaaaaaave Meister, C93 FM" (an airforce Capt from Winnipeg and a former radio DJ), yours truly, and the only chick who survived the night, Capt. Isabelle Mousseau (who - when she isn't selling her soul on a Class B contract in the bowels of NDMC is a sometimes-model and future med student)

This was a very excellent night. Here is looking to next summer's congress in Riga, Latvia! (are there any fountains in Riga? Just curious)

Jeff forgot to mention that the photographer was another chick, Lt(N) Julie Durand, ship driver, website guru and future nursing officer. A local bar a few meters away from the fountain re-opened and greeted us with champagne after our attempt to follow Jeff without a song sheet.

Well thank you so much for reminding me of my restriction imposed by the Viterban police never to come near that city again. And you even posted it on the web. Just great. A true Canadian friend.

Hope to see you all in Brussels in less than 14 days?

Oh - and take a look at http://www.nordicco.com/images/Riga-opera-fountain.jpg. A bit more climbing involved. Meet you guys on the top of that monstrosity for another picture this Summer?
