Author	Topic: Astronaut Julie Payette in my restaurant now!

Her Excellency the Right Honourable Julie Payette, Governor General of Canada and CSA astronaut (ret., STS-96 and STS-127) is on official duties on our small archipelago. She and her entourage were scheduled to eat at the restaurant next door, but someone along her earlier calls this morning, someone told her about this space history buff who owned this other restaurant nearby. And now she's here! I'll tell you all about it!
