Picked up Joan at 9 am for our ride south.
We stopped for a couple of potty breaks and lunch at a nice oasis.
Dropped Joan at her Aunt’s retirement home. Said hello to her Aunt and moved on to South Beach and the Gates Hotel.
Strange Hotel but clean.
We got to our hotel and Terry called our new cousin, Malcolm, whom we met in the lobby.
Terry gave him pages of family.tree that Cousin July did. Called Judy and let them talk and get acquainted. I took a photo of Terry and Malcolm.
It got cool outside where we were sitting and we needed to change clothes for dinner.
We met Malcolm, and his partner Anthony, in the lobby.
Grabbed a cab to go meet Rick and Elaine at the restaurant Osteria Del Teatro.
Elaine, Anthony, Rick, Terry, Malcolm and Marilyn
Had a nice evening!
They leave early in the morning so we said our good byes at the elevator. We encouraged Malcolm to have his brother do his DNA. We are still working on whose child one of his parents was.
They are going back to the islands where Malcolm is trying a case.
They own a 7 bedroom house in France that they want to sell. Bought a piece of land in Antigua on which they plan to build a house.
Anthony’s father, a dentist, was knighted for his WWII efforts. He was a spy. They hid a Jewish family. Was part of the resistance of the Dutch. Gave himself up to the Germans. Was a dentist in a concentration camp.
Anthony's family owns the third largest jewelry store in England. He tried being a restaurant owner when he and his mother had a falling out over the jewelry business.
