That reminds me of when we were kids and worked in the Dime Store and Debra Paget always came to visit the Chiang Kai Sheks. She wore pants with high heels at the times which was something nobody around here did! After all these years I still remember that.
When they were in residence there were armed guards standing along the shoreline.
