Robert's Birthday and Retirement Party

Hello from Germany. Sabine and I have been here since last Thursday, and it has been a really nice vacation. Saturday was the big birthday/retirement party for Robert, and it was a lot of fun. And it was a lot of eating and drinking. The event kicked off at 5pm and didn't end until 2am. There was some music by friends and family, some "readings" of some "odes to Robert", and more music by a brass band from the Czech Republic, Sextet Sestko - Josef Konečný. The party was held in the same place where Sabine and I had our German wedding reception, and Traudl did all of the decorations herself. Here are a few pictures from the party.
