Waiting For Italy
We actually did not have to wait too long: I planned to leave on the Sunday following graduation. I felt it was the best way to get Keegan not to think about leaving his friends. We did, however, find the way to squeeze in some extra fun before the trip.
On Saturday morning, bright and early, we met with Sara, Alyce and Betty to watch Monsters University, the sequel of Monsters Inc. Keegan was very excited, even if he had to give up his normal Saturday morning TV time. The movie theater had a fun display, and kids could climb on a stool and made their own ID card.
Keegan wanted to sit on the top row, which was great, so the kids could freely move around. Sara brought some snacks and water (oh-oh) and we thoroughly enjoyed the movie. It was actually pleasant, even for adults.
The rest of the weekend was mellow. I obviously had a lot of packing to do, so Matt tried to entertain Keegan as much as he could. The new, two lanes slip and slide definitely helped.
By Sunday I had pretty much packing under control, so were were ready to head over the airport around 6pm. We flew British Airlines again, which I love, in part because it leaves at night (=more time to pack and more sleep on route).
Keegan had his second passport issued: quite a difference 5 years makes! It is funny because the Italian passport will not expire till he is 10, so he has 5 more years of using his baby picture. Ready? Italy, here we come!
