The Honorable Richard Olson took the time out of his busy schedule to attend my art exhibition at the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi. I just want to say thank you Mr. Olson for your support. I wish you well on your new posting and God bless!
Thanks for the note Lisa. I don’t know that Amb Olson reads this blog, but if he does, I’m sure he appreciates your good wishes.
Thank you for your response and this platform for which I am grateful. Your updates are interesting to those,like me, who cherish the diplomatic missions. I have been an expat in the Middle East for over 10 years, and am grateful for the work that the Embassies do. So far, all have been excellent. Both the US( my nationality and the British( my husband’s) in Oman, UAE, and Qatar.
Good luck on your art exhibition!
Thank you! That exhibition was back in 2011 at Emirates Palace Hotel, Abu Dhabi. For pix of Ambassador Olson and me please view my blog: http://www.lisamounteerwatson.blogspot.com.
