Another trip for husband Pieter, to Australia came up quite unexpectedly.
On Friday, May 15, in 1987 around noon, Pieter got the message from his Campbell Soup boss, that he had to go to Australia on the 23rd of May!
That was at the time that my Parents had flown back with us, coming from Amsterdam, The Netherlands to Atlanta/USA for their very 1st flight!
Staying with us for one month.
