New York in the summer

Last night we met with the parents of Patrick's friend Mario to discuss summer plans, and it looks like everything is set now. Next week Peter and Mario's father will take care of their tickets, so Patrick and Mario should be off to New York for two weeks in July. Mario's mother has a niece there that they will be staying with, so that should work well for everyone. Mario can practice his English and Patrick can practice Spanish.
I have to admit that it is not that easy to let "my baby" go off on his own, galivanting around the whole world, but I am glad that he has overcome his fear of getting lost, so that he can enjoy travelling now.
Before he goes to New York, though, he will be heading for London in February, so I need to get moving and help him organize that.
