Of course, I don't know whether I mentioned this before, on our trips to Pakistan,
that's almost halfway around the world, I would get first-class tickets. Then
sometimes I would change the first-class ticket into two regular seats and quite often
would take Mary along without it costing me very much. Sometimes, though, I
would have a first-class ticket, and she'd have a coach ticket and I'd let her use my
first-class ticket and I would sit in coach.
But twice, we went around the world. The first time Slichter was on the board of

Pakistan, so she met us in Hong Kong. But Mary, I, and Slich went to Pakistan and
then went on around to, oh, we stopped in various places before we got to Hong
Kong. Mary Slichter had an antique business for awhile. So she nearly bought out
Hong Kong. We met her in Hong Kong and then on to Tokyo and Hawaii.
The other time, I guess it was later on, Mary and I went on around by ourselves and
hit some other places on the way around. We went up to the snow mountain
climbing country.

Nepal?

Q ..
