Spring break worries

While many students and families are taking off for Spring Break this week, at least in this area, very few have a more exciting trip planned than my son and his family.  As I type this they are somewhere over the Atlantic on their way to Paris. I'm sure it will be a wonderful trip but I was reminded yesterday when their other grandma had us over for supper what a different perspective teens and preteens have when it comes to travel. My youngest granddaughter (almost 13) is concerned that she will have to stand up in front of her class and make a report about the trip when she gets back. Her sister (14) will be meeting her French pen pal for the first time in person and she is concerned that he is too clingy. Evidently he emails her several times a day. Ah such problems. I tend to wonder about more basic concerns when I travel like will the plane stay up til we get there. Can't wait til they get home so I can hear all about their adventures.
