Need Karma.*UPDATE* (All Clear)

Savannah, Our oldest daughter, left Saturday for Istanbul, Turkey.
She is in her 4th year at UMD, as an art history major. This is a very short, 6 week internship, she needs (I say, needs. She says needs. but don't ask. I have no idea. I just pay the bill) to complete her undergraduate degree. Working in an art gallery.
She left, emailed from a layover in Boston, was flying to Amsterdam, and then on Turkey.
Haven't heard from her yet. Karen is a nervous wreck. I'm sure she'll be fine, but I'm starting to get a little edgy. She's not with any group. She's basically on her own for this whole deal. She has traveled abroad before, but you always get worried.
I know she'll be fine.
Thanks.

Holy crap! Couldn't she have just gone to work at the Met in NYC for a few weeks to meet this "requirement"?

BTW, I'm actually more shocked that you have a daughter old enough to be in college.

LOL. I get that a lot. Savannah is Karen's daughter from her first marriage. Karen is 7 years older than I am. Karen and I have been married 11 years this August. |

Sending white light brother, stay calm. Wondering two things. Do you know how much restraint it took for me not to throw in the obligatory Billy Hayes reference? Can Eagle type Bangkok? |
