Hotel Moran and Moran Shuttle Services

I've renamed my house "Hotel Moran" and my car "Moran Shuttle Services" for obvious reasons.  I found a sicker from an Ebay purchase years ago for Hotel Moran in Prague and I've jokingly attached it to the extra bedroom door. 

Since I wrote about my guests in a post below...I've had additional guests:
- Nick was home for springbreak in May
- Vivi passed thru from Beijing to Salvador for 4 nights and there was a party at my house while I was on business travel in Texas
- Bill passed thru from Beijing to Salvador for 4 nights and again there was a party at my house while I was on personal travel to Texas.  Bill and I got coffee on the morning of my departure

  
I visited my son in Texas and saw is new home.  We also traded cars so I got to drive home in this 4Runner which I sold 2 weeks later via text messaging - that was easy!

- My cousin Cynthia stayed mid-week as part of her round the USA train trip to reconnect/recover after JIm's untimely death.  She left on a Friday.
- Saturday Tish came in for one night to attend our 30th high school reunion.  Dear God where did the time go?
- A few weeks later Bill came back for a few nights from Salvador back to Beijing and 3/5's of the siblings went out for a drink, or two...

 - Nick came back for 2 1/2 weeks in July.  I really enjoyed having him home, snapped this just before his departure.  I love this photo!

Vivi arrives on Tuesday morning and the great news is that Bill got a job in the USA so he is moving home and Vivi doesn't have to go back to Beijing!  She'll be with me a few days to a week and then into an apartment that they've already found.  My next planned visitor after Vivi is Nick over Xmas.  Hotel Moran will be closed until then...
