Greetings from the beautiful State of Bavaria:
Allow me first, to briefly introduce myself. I’m a professional singer who for the first time, in l972, (Two weeks before the memorable Munich Olympics were to begin) set foot on European soil.
The “blitz” decision to spend “three weeks” in the country of my Godmother’s birth, was undoubtedly the result of the many fascinating and compelling stories I had, (as a child) often heard her elaborate on. Such as, the indescribable four years of incarceration, she was forced to endure in two of Hitler’s infamous concentration camps, -Buchenwald and Ravensburg.
The Chartered Airline, I was about to board, was announcing its first attempt non-stop flight -LAX to Frankfurt, just as my Godmother began to prophesy over me. She said, “In my country, you will become famous, marry a German, and you’ll never return to the States to live”.
Though many things have changed, everything she said came to pass in that order. And yes, I’m STILL here!
