Stand-by for breaking news....

Regarding the post below:
Dateline- The Bahamas

So far so good!!!!!!!!!!!! There is limited cell phone contact in the evenings and she's called every night so far...the bedtime prayer and poem routine were maintained (:

There's been snorkeling in Nassau because the para-sailing was canceled due to high winds. She also has impressed the table mates by ordering escargot, ox-tail soup, lamb shanks, and shrimp ravioli! Though the shrimp ravioli was sent back in favor of a steak....she didn't realize the shrimp would be ground into the stuffing cheese. Oh, and she thought escargot were "some kind of tasty French fish"....not sure when we're going to break that one to her. Auntie Peggy reports not knowing this "vibrant and conversational" teen that is traveling with her!! Okay, yes I'm nearly giddy now too.....thank you God...we really needed this right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
