So, my mom and dad went on a 15-days vacation to Russia and the Scandinavian countries. A few days ago, they were in Stockholm when my sister got a text message from my mom saying that my dad drove him crazy.
I know it's not new news, they drive each other crazy once in a while.
But still, we, the kids were kinda concerned, since they should be having fun, eating caviar and go on cruises.
In the light to console my mom and also to give some peace of mind to bro and sis, I called my mom at her hotel, and chit chatted a bit, only to find out that the quarrel was about some missing umbrella which my dad lost, and which was found again later on.
Oh, mom...
So, here is how the passing of information went:
My mom texted my sister from Stockholm to Jakarta. My sister text my brother then my brother told me (in Bolingbrook, Illinois) when we chatted on Yahoo.
And then, I called my mom to Stockholm using Skype.
Then, after finding out that it was over a missing umbrella, I texted my sister in Jakarta, to let her know, then I emailed my brother in Jakarta about it too.
So, to recap:
Stockholm - Jakarta - Jakarta - Bolingbrook - Stockholm - Jakarta - Jakarta.
Isn't the internet era swell?
All for a missing umbrella.
Somewhere, the CEO of Skype, the CEO of my phone provider, the CEO of my sister's and my brother's cell phone providers are having a big grin about this.
