  Happy Easter from Munich

  Hi, from sunny “Monaco”.
  As long as it’s not raining or snowing it’s beergarden time here.
  We had fun, strolling through the city, having Weißwurst for breakfast and
  watching the Eisbach surfers in almost freezing water.

  Not to mention the very expensive but delicious chocolate we had while going
  for a walk in the English Garden. But the most valuable times we have when
  sitting around the dining table at the “Casa Kuhn” eating delicious food
  cooked and served by our fantastic hosts Beate and Matthias, eating,
  drinking and talking until the early morning hours.
  In between trying to call the West coast-Crew, which apart from Carey, never
  answers. Therefore Youenn has to leave very philosophical messages on their
  answering machines. So it seems that we won’t be able to find out if there
  is one more Ph.D. hanging around in the Disneyland for adults called Santa
  Barbara.

  This said, we all wish you a Happy Easter, lots of fun and hope to see you
  very soon!

  Enjoy!

  Friends!

  Speaking of Monaco, you all do indeed look like part of the GLY Royal Family.
  Bine, gives Princess Caroline a run for her money with her gorgeous dark locks and dazzling smile.
  Beate is clearly channeling Grace Kelly in her olive coat fresh off the runway.
  Matthias has all the royal je ne sais quoi of Prince Albert with a full head of hair!
  Alan looks like the cherubic love child of Princess Stephanie and some dashing race car driver.
  And King Youenn makes Ranier look like an impostor.  His royal command over his subjects oozes through every pixel of the photographs.  He clearly rules with an iron fist and a warm heart.
  All hail King Youenn.  Long live the King!

  Love,

  A loyal subject in a the far away outpost of West Hollywood
  Carey

  Carey,
  I love your writing. Maybe some day we should work together on a book…
  I had a wonderful time in Munchen, as you could see, and I need to rest at work now…
  I
  do not know if I told you, but I have a sabbatical next year (Spring
  semester 2009), which means that I will finally finish my second book
  and visit friends. No winter for Youenn…
  Take care,
  Youenn

  My Fabulous French Friend,

  Working with you on a book would be like Dr. Seuss working with Victor
  Hugo!  Suffice it to say though, I’m flattered, and you are ALWAYS
  welcome at the Hotel Careyfornia/Writers Sanctuary!

  BTW, is this book going to be in English?

  GLY!
  Carey

  Oi, queridos!
   
  Our weather was a little different than Munich’s today, but Dri, Caique, their mothers, and I did our share of beer, caipirinha, and coffee drinking as well.  We went for a lovely walk on the beach in Barra da Tijuca, enjoyed an incredible and enormous meal of squid, crab, and shrimp, and finished the evening with drinks on Copacabana as the nearly-full moon rose out of the Atlantic.
   
  Naturally, you came up in conversations many times.  Hope everyone had a fabulous Easter.
   
  Beijos,
  Joelle

  Saudades, Girls From Ipanema!

  Seeing Mom Diversi on the beach in Rio was better than any Easter basket!  Muito obrigado.  Please send abracos fortes to Silvia and  grande beijos to all of you.

  Easter in L.A. was spectacular and hot.  I just posted a bunch of pictures on my blog, so you can see just how hot it was.

  I miss you all, and wish I could be there with you and all the morsels.  I know Bine will be there soon, so keep the pictures coming!

  GLY,

  Carey
  xoxo
