Kaida's 90th!

Who would have thought a 90th birthday dinner would go for 6 hours and see a sizable number of bottles empty? On August 19th, Kaida turned 90 and clearly still has a few birthdays left in her. After a few drinks, stories of bombing in Dresden, escaping Estonia and family left behind (or killed) were shared. Egan hasn't seen any siblings since catching up with a sister in Singapore in the 1950s. Kaida spoke of a brother who she hasn't seen since the 40s who ended up in Siberia. He had missed out on being executed with her parents because he was ill and elsewhere . Some tales were so interesting, Stephen had to click on the iPhone video recorder. The first recording is good fun as both Kaida and Egan are chatting to different folks and both conversations are equally interesting. Egan never forgets dates which is a handy skill when discussing the past.
