Which is what I thought to myself when an old shipmate from more than sixty years ago - see here - sent me this photo and email from Germany on the last day of the year:
PIZ LA MARGNA? But then I enlarged the photo and saw the inscription along its hull: "FLAVIA". Right! Good one, Jürgen! And you're not the only one who in his old age thinks back to those days and weeks aboard the "FLAVIA" when we were on our way to a new life in a new country.
You didn't stay but I did. Who made the better decision? Pointless to think about it now, but if as you write, "Sometimes I wish I could be back in Australia. Maybe it'll work out sometime soon. Before I get too old", you know you're always welcome at "Riverbend". Happy New Year!
