  Canasta, the name of the game that brought us together, we met by chance on a February day and since then there has been nothing but fireworks between us. I am working in Iraq and she is living in Romania. By chance a fellow buddy of mine wanted to go and visit Romania and a few other countries on our next coming vacation. So when we got to talking about my trip I told her of my plans to go and visit her country. I told her that I might even come to visit her if we continued to talk and correspond. To make a long story shorter, we did continue to talk and correspond and I did go visit her on that vacation. She took me around her country and showed me everything she could in the short time we had together.

    Our first meeting in person, well let me tell you this story. I was NERVOUS as any one could be. We had planned to meet each other at the terminal gate when I got off the plane in Bucharest, where she lives. When I came around the corner thru the door I saw her standing there, as beautiful as the day I first saw her picture the first day we met on the net playing canasta. I walked up and gave her a hug and a kiss on the cheek. We embarrassed for a couple of moments and then she said lets go. So with that, she turned and started to walk very fast toward door. I had to grab my bags and follow her like a puppy following his mom. She was trying to get away from me already. I was thinking. Well she wasn't, she was a little bit nervous as well. We got out to the car and without a mob of people around we were finally able to give each a hug longer than that of a breath such as the short time before inside the terminal in the airport. We climbed in the car and she pulled around to pay for the parking. The time was about 1100 at night so it was dark outside. She got out of the car and went and paid the attendant came back and go in the car. She took off heading out of the airport and when she got to the red light to turn out of the airport drive the police were directing traffic there, the flagged her down. She pulled over and got out, went to them. They pulled her over because, get this, she didn't have her headlights on and she forgot to put her seat belt on. I forgot to tell you that I did tell her this before we left the parking lot. She explained to the officer she was a blond and he let her go. Since then, I like to do the driving lets just say that when we are going somewhere.
  We created this web page together so our friends and family on the other side of the world could see where we are and what we are doing together. Where we go and what we look like as we grow together.

This web site is for our friends and family in Romania and in the US. Please keep in touch.
