Meeting

Last week I met a long time lost friend after 36 years. We were close friends from 6 years on at primary school and after that. As teenagers we went camping together and on holiday with her parents to Austria. We attended each other's weddings, showed both our babies at each other. And then we lost contact, don't know exactly why but probably by our busy lives and she going abroad.
 Thanks to the miracles of internet we found each other again and she only lives 30 km from my place. Here she is watching old memories in my photoalbum and I caress her sweet 17 years old cat.
