Pierre has been in Dubai on business and I have been in Austin visiting a long-time friend. Why is it that when Pierre calls from Dubai, the connection is 100 times clearer than when he calls me from Dallas when I am in Dallas? Is Dubai way ahead on telephone technology too?
Pierre is back tonight and I am sure he will have some pretty interesting photos to share on this site..but then again, maybe he slept the whole time he was there, except for his 2 meetings. To fly 48 hours there and 48 hours back and be there for 48 hours probably didn't leave a lot of time for snapping pictures! But I do know he went to the indoor ski slope!
