The BIG Vacation: Part Three

For the final portion of our vacation, we headed South. We were meant to spend some time visiting my grandmother in Alabama. Unfortunately, the girls were not able to see her again, but I made it just in time to say good bye to her before she passed. It was a hard time for all of us, but I am so grateful that our girls knew her. Norah often puts on her Alabama t-shirt and pretends to be Nana. She would have loved that! We were able to get in some rest and relaxation, too, and enjoy some more time in the US.

The upside of a family member passing is extra time with other family members. Sometimes, these family members bring out their old middle school dance costumes. Eleanor, technically, I only promised not to put these pictures on Facebook.

We spent Labor Day morning at Tucker Branch with our fishing guide extraordinaire, my cousin David. Here is Norah's first fish!

Kata is a fisherwoman too. And if you don't want to dig a cricket out of the holder, Kata's got you covered.

Eight fish! So proud!

Norah channels Santa Claus.

The girls had fun playing with my dear Chattanooga friend's baby.

In ATL, flying back to Guyana for possibly the last time!!!!
