Tootsie... August 22, 2009 12:04 PM

This relates to an email way back - but I finally remembered the names of the Somoza children. Salvadorita was my Polka dance partner at the Red Cross Benefit - think it was in the Teatro Real... and I do believe it was Bernabe that showed up at Burtonwood and Dad honked him and the Rolls driver out of his way! They were both Louis Somoza's children.... I do not remember if they had other children or not...
About that Singer - (sorry if I am repeating myself) but Paul were you with us when Peter drove us to Massachapa using his feet to steer?
Kathy you were asking about Peter - he is in Venezuela - married a young Venezuelan woman - two little kids to add to the rest of the five kids he had while married to Tina Troutman - do you remember her? Paul has probably already told you this.
Tina lived in what used to be the French Ambassador's house - it was next door to our apartment (near Somoza's palace) - when we had slumber parties, we'd sleep out on the patio and in the morning would peek over the wall - and often the view was the French Ambassador having coffee in his underwear!! Talk about Junior High girls, Kathy - it was giggle, giggle, giggle. I think he rather liked it... he collected stamps & arranged them out there too... underwear only... This was before many of you arrived in Nica - maybe '59 - '60. There is another round of emails from the kids from that era... too.
