Kurze Informationen: Zu all unseren normalen Aktivitäten versuchen wir gerade, alles für Veronikas große Reise nach Kalifornien vorzubereiten, wo dieses Wochenende ihr erstes Semester beginnt. Es muß noch so viel gemacht werden! Ich habe heute alles für sie geflickt und genäht, was sie mitnehmen will. Jetzt mache ich Listen, was sie dort alles kaufen muß. Sie kann ja im Flugzeug keine Bettwäsche oder Decken mitnehmen, sondern muß alles da kaufen. Aber es gibt in San Diego ein Ikea, wo Peter und sie dann einkaufen werden. Peter hilft ihr beim Einzug in die Studentenwohnung. Veronika wohnt mit vier anderen Mädchen zusammen. Flora hat am Freitag für die Rollenverteilung beim Nußknacker vorgetanzt und gedacht, es hätte gut geklappt. Jonathan bereitet auch eine Reise vor, aber seine Reise geht nach Europa! Miriam ist diese Wochenende in Maine, um an einer Agrarmesse mit anderen Studenten teilzunehmen. Charlotte plant verschiedene Choreographien für ihre Tänzerinnen. Leider habe ich heute keine Fotos.

"Travel" Preparations/"Reisevorbereitungen"
Short update: In addition to our regular activities, we are getting Veronika ready for her trip to California to start her first semester at college. There is a lot to do! I finished all the mending and sewing I wanted to do for her today. Now I am making lists about what she needs to buy once she gets there. She won't be able to take along bedding for example, so all needs to be bought once she arrives. Luckily, there is an Ikea store in San Diego! And Peter will help her with the purchases and getting her settled in. She is going to share a student apartment with four other girls. Flora had Nutcracker auditions on Friday and thought they went well. Jonathan is also preparing for travels, but he is flying to Europe! Miriam is in Maine this weekend attending an agriculture fair with some other students. Charlotte is working on some choreography for her dance students. I have no pictures today.

I'm so excited for Veronika. It'll be fun picking out sheets in San Diego with Peter, and it's so beautiful there! California is one of my favorite places :) It's nice to hear what everyone is up to and I hope Flora will be happy with her Nutcracker results and we wish Jonathan good travels.
ReplyDeleteYes, I think so too! She will have fun choosing her own things. I know that you really like California, and our semester there was marvelous, except for the driving. I could never, ever drive there. I think Flora will get her results by the end of the week. I don't think she cares much which role(s) she gets. I hope Jonathan has save travels. He will be going to Lithuania, Poland, and Germany.
DeleteOh, Jonathan is really traveling to many places! I'll keep him in my prayers for safe trips. It sounds wonderful and interesting.
DeleteHe said "thank you" when I told him :). I also think he is visiting interesting places.
DeleteYour brood are busy bees for sure. I will keep Veronika in my prayers that the first few days goes well and that she manages to source everything she needs once she arrives. Sending hugs to you too as another 'chick' flees the nest xx
ReplyDeleteAh, thanks so much, San. I think she is looking forward to her new adventures, but she is also sad to leave her family and her familiar surroundings behind. Peter will help her settle in, but won't be able to stay long. Yes, it will get quite quiet here (although there is still Leo, who is a handfull).
