"Thank you again for giving us a ride to the metro station."

It was my pleasure to help in any way, and to meet you all. Despite the security precautions, I found it relatively easy to get into and away from the Washington Plaza Hotel.

Apparently, it was right on the fringes of the security cordon, and fortunately, much of the usual traffic chose to be elsewhere.

Marissa appears to have her own method of dealing with jetlag, just taking a nap. Did she forget the name she had given to the little elephant?

I think she changed the name of the elephant to Dumbo. I've forgotten what she named it originally. It was something like Kinku. I have no idea where she came up with that name.

She took a short nap on the plane coming home. She did get back to school yesterday. She took pictures to school and told everyone about her trip.

I thank you for the ride to the metro also, very nice of you. :-)
