Montmelian (June 16th)

THE very best party at INSEAD so far... This guys put a lot of effort and it was great... It's just too bad I don't have more pictures! The theme was evening or military... As soon as you got to the chateau, an old fashioned army jeep would drive you through the property all the way to the party... Fantastic!





My friend Ralph (center of the picture) who is doing his MBA at IESE in Barcelona came to visit... He thought the party ended quite early as we walked back to the car around 5:30AM... I can't imagine what the party life must be in Catalunya! :-)

By the way, what I have on my face wasn't part of the costume... It's my good looking nose-cast...

Baywatch Party (June 9th)

The title says everything about the theme... My house was transformed from Shangri-La to "Shangri-La Bay"... :-)





The party was good! Dominique, a friend of mine from Bombardier who was on vacation, came down from Paris to get a taste of the INSEAD experience... It's just too bad I broke my nose that morning playing soccer: notice the cool plaster!

Golfing again! (June 8th)

The "Golf de Fontainebleau" is meant to be part of the top 10 golf courses of Central Europe... Green fee was decent: 50 EUR for INSEAD students... Tried to improve from my last performance, given the competition from Hami and Ian, but it didn't happen... I will need to train harder in Montreal if I want to do better in September!

A camel on the INSEAD lawn?!? (June 6th)

It was Arabic Week and they brought a CAMEL!!! So funny, had to take a picture...

Golfing (June 2nd)

It was time to put my golf clubs to good use! Girish and I headed to Cely Golf Club to play a little 9-hole... Great scenery, disastrous golf...

Dragon Week Party (June 1st)

Before anyone comments on the dressing, I must mention that the theme was Shanghai 1930s... My friend Laurent from Montreal and his wife Amanda who were at the Ball the week before were still in Paris and they joined us... I guess the venue was decent: in a boat, on the Seine, in the middle of Paris... :-)
