There is also a picture of the inside of my hotel room with Natalee Holloway's (search) mother. After we did our "surprise" visit to the home of the Dutch teen, we went back to my room to regroup. Natalee's mother is the one sitting on the floor in the picture. By the way, I admire Natalee's mother. She is one determined woman! Of course I meet many amazing people — including people like Sharon Rocha (search) — people who never wanted to be heroes or role models but who were thrust into that position by some ugly event.
Yesterday I planned on spending the day with Natalee's mother in order to figure out how she spends her days searching in this foreign country. We ended up spending 90 minutes in the home of the Dutch teen with his parents so I did not get the chance to spend the day searching.
Today the plan is to spend the day with Natalee's mother... let's see if the plan is carried out. I am to meet her at 9 a.m. at her hotel (incidentally, she is staying in the same room Natalee was staying in when she vanished.) As an aside, I hope to blog more details about the meeting with Natalee's mother and the Dutch teen's parents in the near future.
Interesting add on comment by Greta.
Also, just caught Greta on the Factor and she said that after she and Natalee's mom had met for 90 minutes yesterday, that Natalees mom pressed to be able to do so the following day. TODAY. She wanted ACCESS. So, it was a greed upon by the Sloots. So Greta was to spend the whold day with Natalee's mom Today to see how she pends her day, PLUS have a second interview with the Sloots. The meeting was set for 3 pm.
As time approached Natalee's mom told Greta she couldn't make the appointment with the Sloots. Odd considering that she presed them so hard for this appointment and ACCESS the day before. Not to mention rude. Sorry, but she wanted the appointment then pulled a no show. Time will tell, I guess, if her time was better spent. Maybe she thought Greta could ask better questions, or maybe she thought they would reveal more, to Greta. We'll see.
