Day 147 – December 17

Today is the day that it will no longer be the three of us anymore. Today we will pick our parents up from the airport and have them with us the last two weeks of our stay.

At 1.00PM we headed towards Tampa right out of school to pick them up.

When we arrived we first got ourselves a cup of coffee at Starbucks.

After that it was waiting time … DTW-TPA, DL1621 arrival 4.48PM.

And then after some 5 months we were finally back together, our parents are there. Welcome in Tampa, welcome in Florida!

Camy was happy to see her two grandma’s and granddad. She had to check wether or not she had grown any the last couple of months. And she certainly did, she got up with Oma Lien.

Day 143 – December 13

Today we enjoyed an easy day. At dinner time we headed towards Pleasure Island. We had some fries there on a pre-heated terrace.

As a desert Bram and Camy had a coffee at Starbucks.

We enjoyed that while seated and just watched all the people go by. On a regular Saturday night it is well crowded here at Pleasure Island and it is just so much fun to see all those beautiful people.

Day 120 – November 20

We again waited at school until most parents had taken off after dropping off their kids. We always hang around a little longer, just watching everybody run around and check out the news on our phones.

We also always look around and see whats going on. See these squirrels, they are here in bunches, like everywhere in the USA, but are hard to see back home in Holland. They are so cute and adorable.

After everybody had left school property we took off to Starbucks. We had a wonderful tortilla with spinach and feta.

On the wrapping paper you can read I’m called Sofia, I do not know why, maybe I pronounce my name a little different. Every time I say my name, they write it as Sophia. And Bram is spelled Bryan most of the time, so from now on it is just Bryan and Sofia McLane.

Bram took his time and read the paper with some cappuccino, always a good time at Starbucks.

Later that day I had an appointment with Dr. Barot, just to check up. Everything was just fine. Got another B-12 shot and they took another blood sample. We need to return one more time before going home. I’m feeling great, I’m so happy!
