International weekend - wedding and graduation

This weekend allowed us to celebrate 2 wonderful International events.  

The first was another Internet success story that resulted in a joyous wedding celebration.  Adrian, a physician from Romania who is working here in Topeka, met Elisa, a multi-talented and beautiful woman from Brazil, on the Internet.  Their first date was in Ireland and their wedding celebration was yesterday in Topeka.
Helen and I were lucky to be included.  Both fitting and appropriate for an Internet love story, this celebration was transmitted via Skype to family in Brazil.

The second celebration focused on our friend Juri from South Korea.  Juri graduated from Topeka High School with a perfect 4.0 grade point average.  Her exchange program extended to 2 years and she has grown sooooo much during that time.  We will miss her.  Congratulations to Juri!
Four continents came a little closer together yesterday.
Peace.
