"It was the end of a perfect day. We were dining outside in the garden of our exquisite hotel with our fellow travelers. The weather was balmy. The gourmet food defied description. A piano played softly. I looked up to the sky and there was a full moon. It was a magical evening that I will never forget."Carol M., Abington, PA
