Arvi Bahal and his wife, Pam, hosted a sumptuous around-the-world summertime lunchtime gathering at their home along the north shore of Boston on Saturday, July 12. Both Arvi and Anush Dawidjan had just returned from around-the-world trips and shared about their adventures to North Korea, Iran, Azerbaijan and beyond. Other members shared about their diverse around-the-world journeys and divulged upcoming travel plans. We quickly realized the question of the day was not if members had circumnavigated the globe, but how many times!

The next meeting will be held sometime this fall and announced at a later date.
