The Hospitality Of My Friends Is What Will Remain
Author: siggyThe hospitality I was shown by my friends will remain with me for a long time. Long after my visit was complete and I was back home. Both my friend and his wife were very gracious towards me. I did not want to infringe upon them and they did give me some space. Their hospitality toward me is what I remember. I did realize I was a guest but I did not try to take advantage of that. He did his best to make my stay a memorable one. He took me on a boat trip down the Pearl River. And that over two hour ride was lots of fun. We saw at least a dozen alligators and many birds. Our guide was a real character. We ate at different restaurants. I never had a sandwich of fried shrimp before. There are so many memories it will take me a while to process them. But long after they are gone what I will remember the most is how comfortable both of them made me feel as their guest.
