I finally made it to Madrid to see Jim and Emmanuelle, just in the nick of time. In addition to being shown around the city and a side trip to beautiful Toledo, I got to see both Jim and Emmanuelle's studios and I am now a proud owner of a Jim Kendall painting (a long-time dream come true). Unfortunately, Lars couldn't come with me (he had to work), the only thing missing while having a wonderful time with good friends.
