We finally heard from Angelica.
After dropping her off at 5:30am on Sunday morning, we didn’t hear from her again until Tuesday afternoon. That’s a looooong time to be away from someone that you’ve worried over and “mother hen’d” for over a year.
And……she was fine. Obviously!
Jon and I…..not so much!
I mean, we are okay and in all reality, too busy to be worrying 24/7 but there are definitely the odd moments that get ya.
She called on Tuesday afternoon just to let us know that everything was okay and that she was having SO MUCH FUN. I asked the usual “How are you doing? How are you feeling? Everything okay?” questions and then reminded her to take a million pictures and she assured me she was and then we hung up.
It was just a quick short conversation and so we were DELIGHTED when she e-mailed us on Wednesday. It wasn’t a long e-mail, but enough to connect AND THEN…..
Wednesday afternoon she emailed a HUGE LONG RAMBLING e-mail. It was wonderful.
So far, they have seen or done…..
– Mme. Tussaudes (the wax museum)
– Empire State Building
– The Blue Man Group
– Lion King (the musical) and got to go back stage
– Battery Park
– Statue of LIberty
– a Private Pool Party
And they still have today and tomorrow.
She mentioned that it is SO HOT! She wore her hoody one day and said that it feels like you are being smothered with a heavy blanket. She is also LOVING the restaurants that the are eating at, but she also mentioned that she is missing her fruits and veggies….apparently you can eat too much junk food!
I’m so glad that she has had this opportunity. It is such a blessing. I can’t wait to see all her pictures and to hear all about her many adventures.
