desk, which was quite a hassle because it was a long, narrow hotel with a lot of steps. But I made it and off we went. Since they didn't speak too much English and were in the back seat and I was up front with the driver, and because there was lots of noise in the open car, it was a long and lonely as well as bumpy ride back to Arusha - but we finally made it.
I stayed there that night and got out to the field the next. morning and caught the flight to Dares-Salaam which is the cap- ital city of Tanzania on the Indian Ocean. I was scheduled to connect with an Air France flight to Paris at 5:30 P'M' so that I could get to Copenhagen by 10:00 A'M' Sunday in order to take in the last half day of a three day convention of the mem- bers of FPE of No. Europe. It wasn't till I had sat in the lounge for two hours that one of the Air Tanzania girls came up to tell me that the flight till early the next morning. We could not raise the Air France agent on the phone so a young Swedish man and I shared a Taxi into town and took rooms at the Hotel Kili- manjaro for the night. I went out and took a walk around town, found the phone company and put in a long diatance call to Co- penhagen to tell my friends there that I wouldn't be there in the morning. Then back to the hotel for dinner and an early re- tirement as we had to be up at 2AM to be sure to get a taxi to the airport.
The agent finally arrived and made me an Air France connec- tion Paris to Copenhagen which was due to leave 11⁄2 hours after our flight was due to arrive. So we took off and had several stops on the way. Finally we arrived in Athens and stayed on the ground for 14 pf the 11⁄2 hours change time I had. So I got the steward to let me stand up at the door in the first class section to be the first off. My Swedish friend and I were grabbed by some ground personnel and we literally ran thru the departure lounge to the area for the Copenhagen plane. We got the last two seats on the plane and finally arrived in Copenhagen. I called Erna, my FPE friend and told her I was in town, would take the bus to the downtown terminal and would she meet me there. I did and she did and I had a great three days with the Danish girls.
I gave a seminar to the interns and residents in Psychiatry at the state hospital and a long interview with a gal that pub- lishes a two page spread on sexual matters in each Wednesday's
