An Amazing Visit


Luca Turin, his wife, Desa Philippi, and Adela and Tazio were our guests here in Auke Bay for an amazing week of salmon, pony rides (Adela is an extraordinary 5 1/2 year old ponywoman!!), helicopters, float planes. and a great lecture on olfaction by Luca at UAS. We look forward to having Luca's book, The Secret of Scent, available in the US in November from Ecco Press. Luca had his first US booksigning with people who had ordered it from the UK! The price of fame!! A lovely week spent with great friends. Picture above of me, my wife Susan, Tazio, Adela, and Luca and the Ward Air Beaver in the background.
