Our flight left Dublin at 10am on Monday, we changed planes in Chicago and arrived in Seattle around 7pm but, our body clocks thought it was the middle of the night. I'm still trying to acclimate to west coast time!
The car had a flat tire, the GPS died, the router for our Internet service was also dead, the motorhome was NOT fixed and we got an email from Verizon that our bill was over $600 for roaming charges in Canada! Welcome back!!!!
Roger got the tire fixed; bought a new GPS and a new router; spent the morning on the phone with Verizon explaining we never were in Canada and we are waiting for the correct jacks for the motorhome! Guess we'll hang out around Seattle for awhile longer - good news is the weather is nice.
We talked with Samantha and Emily on SKYPE. Samantha read us a short story! She told us her teacher sends a "book" home and she reads it with her Mom and Dad until she can do it good - then her parents sign it and she takes it to school and reads it for her teacher - if she does well she gets the next level book to bring home. She also has "sight" words, 10 at at time, that she needs to be able to recognize. She is doing very well and loves it!
Kyle is growing a beard and Emily says "I no see hims cheeks!" She also told us she's "coming to the United States in 5 sleeps" - "to see cousins." Unfortunately, that is not true! They are both all excited about Halloween - Samantha is going to be the book character "Fancy Nancy" and Emily is going to be "Annie" from the movie she loves!
