This is the third and last installment of my trilogy about this year's vacation. By now, if you've read the other two posts, you have a pretty good idea about how we spend our vacation in the USA this year. In case you haven't read those posts but would like to, here're links to those posts:Part 1 and Part 2 We spend some good quality time with each other this summer and it was great. We had like 2 days before our flight to the US and a few days after our trip together in Holland. Especially the boys really felt that daddy was back with them. This was most apparent when I was leaving for Cairo again. Especially considering I was going to spend two weeks in Cairo instead of just one. But first our days back in Holland. Especially Jay was suffering from the difference in time. He wouldn't catch sleep untill midnight. His internal clock was completely screwed up and it took quite a while before it was back from EST to CET. Of course that caused quite a bit of frustration with him. Ray was adjusting a lot better, but he as well was not back into the normal Almere day routine immediately. We're still happy we came back days before school would start, otherwise it would've been a disaster. In the weeks I was in Cairo, it became really clear how intense our vacation had been in terms of spending time together. Not being together in this period was hard on everybody. Like going cold turkey on them. I guess it just means that our family dynamics are pretty good. Taking a positive view on matters. Well, considering our time in the US, the time in Holland was really uneventful, so I won't waste your time any further. As always, thanks for sticking with the post until the end. Iwan
