How Sad a Passage

COUNTESS "This young gentlewoman had a father,--O, that 'had'! how sad a passage 'tis!--whose skill was almost as great as his honesty; had it stretched so far, would have made nature immortal, and death should have play for lack of work." -Act I scene i, All's Well that Ends Well.

Makofi

Well?

Happy with the Yes, and all that came after.  The hostel life, the FA Cup Final, the sunsets, the Book of Qualities, the random acrobats and vloggers and teachers with Hawaiian property.  Holding on to the mirage at work.  Lots of little, special moments.  All a reconfirmation of the correctness of the decision, including dinner tonight at the bonfire and the saying of a grace, the storytelling about Oprah's VIP reception, the stars and the swimming.

Booked the flight home for her via Kenya tonight.  Wonder if we bookend it with some COVID tests?  Possibly.  Next up is a week of sunrises though, we will need to see how and whether we meet up with these crazies again.  But it has been a gem of a place.  Enjoy paradise before you die indeed.

Good times.  What's the word for the period between engagement and marriage, as an equivalent for honeymoon?  Figure that one out, and report anon.
