The proposal!

Due to popular demand, here is how the proposal happened.

Molly and I arrived in Paris in the morning. We took the limousine around for sightseeing. After a few hours walking around in museums, the Louvre and the Arc de Triomphe we finally made it to the top of the Eiffel tower. The view of Paris was spectacular. It was a breezy Friday evening and we were the only ones up there. The band that I had hired arrived after about 10 minutes we were up there and started singing the Amor di Vieta of Lucciano Pavarotti. I got on one knee and asked Molly to marry me. It was fantastic, she said Yes and we were so happy.






















OK here is the truth.
We went to a nice Italian restaurant in Nicosia. The service was good but I didn't really like the food. We discussed about walking afterwards or going home to watch a movie. We decided on going home. On the way back I told her that I had forgotten my computer charger at the office and that I would have to go get it. Once we were there, I told her to open the car trunk and get some things that we needed to take upstairs. When she opened the trunk there was a big sign that I had handwritten and asked Molly to marry me. I gave her the ring (she actually gave me her hand to put the ring on) and that was it. She called her family, and the next day she remembered to tell me "Yes".

Yes, we are really happy nowadays:)
