The Mini Reunion

We drove to San Diego to take my father to meet with his sister Marta. She and her husband tio Beto live in Miami Florida. One of their daughters Janet had to come to San Diego in a business trip and brought them with her. They have not seen each other in over 5 years and now they were face to face. They were so excited! We met at the lobby of their hotel. They looked so much forward to spending this day together. It was a mini reunion of one day full of joy!
Brother and sister did not know what to do with each other. They were hugging, holding hands, talking and kissing each other. There were a lot other chairs in the hotel lobby, but they just wanted to sit on the same chair together very close to each other. This went on for a good half hour. It was so beautiful to watch:-)


Gordon and tio Beto connected right away and had long conversations.
Tio Beto speaks English fluently.


We went up to their hotel room on the 28th floor to be in a more private place to visit with each other. From their hotel room they had a great view of the San Diego harbor.

They were so glad to see and be with each other. Lots of catching up to do:-)
