What a wonderful day. We had a very tasty educational visit to a chocolate shop where several of the delegates had an opportunity to try their hands at being a chocolatier. The results were yummy.
I do get texts and pics from Jan but every time I ask if I can call him something always comes up on his end, lol! Had to ask him for the Eiffel tower pics and he did send one. I texted him again "the tower" and he insisted "that's the tower, Mom". I'm wondering, if they are really in Paris. And I think Ms Mary might have scared my son, he did not bring his videocam to the Eiffel tower trip cuz of pick pockets! Lol!
Oh my, I think they're having too much fun! Its okay, I've survived six days so far.
FINALLY, we got a call last night! Apparently, Christian was having technical difficulties w/ his phone. All is well but his new little Nikon camera we bought for the trip quit working in The Louvre...lens completely locked up & won't work. We are thankful for whoever brought two & was kind enough to let Christian borrow it for the time being.
I did call Jan today about mid PM after he texted he's a little homesick. It's his 13th birthday! They're on a ferry to the Sailing Academy. It broke my heart to know he misses home.
I'm waiting for 6AM(their time) so I can greet happy birthday!
If any of you happen to have further contact, ask if they've seen a guy named Cameron, and to tell him his mom and dad said HI. lol. I think he's forgotten he has a phone, which would be really strange. ;)
We heard from Rachel the night before last. She said she had taken 1633 pictures. Wow, if any of you need copies of any certain places, let us know. Rachel was ecstatic and very happy.
I'm sure everyone is having a wonderful time & I'm guessing Christian is just too busy to check in @ home. ;)
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun!!
ReplyDelete@Joanna: same with Cameron! Not a peep (text) since the first night, which I think is a good sign. He'll probably just want to stay over there. ;)
Still waiting...maybe if I shut down the debit card, I'll get a call!!! :)
