We are back from our mini-vacation and to our normal busy routine -- except for Jonny's night classes since he still has 1 and 1/2 weeks off until the summer semester starts.
We had a lovely time away! How we wish we didn't have to come back so soon!
Jonny and Daniel joined me in Charlottesville for the last 2 days of my work meeting and we had fun sharing the hotel room and exploring the town. I also loved showing Daniel off to my colleagues who all thought he was very cute. I always said, "I agree with you, he is cute!" :-)
Here are some photos of the first part of our mini-vacation:
Daniel loved playing inside his suitcase while I tried to get it packed before I left...
It was so wonderful to be reunited again. And Daniel really expressed that he was happy to see me again. He kept saying over and over "I'm so glad to see you!" and was very cuddly!
It turned out that one of the customers at the barber was a firefighter. And Daniel went up to him and said: "Excuse me. Are you a firefighter?" And the man said: "Yes, do you want to see my car?" And oh boy, we had a very happy boy!
The next day while I was at the meeting, Jonny took Daniel to a children's museum which Daniel absolutely loved! He even got to dress up as a NASA pilot.
After dinner, Linfeng took us to see University of Virginia's campus -- it was beautiful!

Jonny really needed a haircut so we decided to go and get his haircut at the local barber. When we got there, Daniel said: I want my haircut too! I want to go first! This came as a HUGE surprise since I have always cut his hair. But since he was so determined, we said yes and he seemed to enjoy his first ever haircutting experience outside of our home. He enjoyed it and really did a great job at sitting still. And the people there were so friendly and had worked there since the mid 70s. It had a really nice small town feel.

We had dinner with Linfeng, an old colleague of Jonny's from Hopkins that now lives in Charlottesville. Not a great picture of us, but it is a good reminder of our time together.

And Daniel, of course, took the opportunity to run around the historical buildings.
More soon on Part 2...
