pat Traveler Joined: Apr 2001 Posts: 14,645 Brookfield, CT.	English as their second language is a lot better than many of us who use it as our only language. And it’s a lot better than the small smathering of French I learned in high school a lifetime ago. With regard to bringing or not bringing the ‘tuba’, my mantra is I’d far prefer to have something and not use it than to be kicking myself for wanting to use that which I didn’t bother to bring with me but easily could have........😊😊 Respectfully, pat "Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them."
