John Olesky, Class of 1950, and Paula are getting famous kiss re-enactments down pretty well.

The latest kiss imitation came at Ostereichische Museum in Vienna’s Belvedere Palace where Gustav Glint’s 1909 “The Kiss” painting hangs. This was during their March 13-21 Danube River cruise from Budapest, Hungary to Nuremberg, Germany.

John and Paula have had their photo taken while kissing at the southernmost point of the United State in Key West, Florida, which is customary in front of the Conch Republic marker; in front of Clark Gable’s Cadiz, Ohio boyhood home, where the famous Gable “Gone With the Wind” kissing movie poster with Vivian Leigh is displayed on the front door; and at the giant sculpture imitating the famous World War II-ending kiss photo by the sailor and nurse in Sarasota, Florida.

They even hung upside down while separately kissing the Blarney Stone at the Blarney Castle in Blarney, Ireland. John French-kissed it; it tasted salty. The Blarney stone, not Paula.

 

More on the Danube River cruise once John goes through the hundreds of photos of the trip, his 12th cruise & 2nd river cruise.
