THE BIG MOVE

On March 30, 2011 my parents (the kids babi and deda) boarded an airplane for their move back to the Czech Republic. After up rooting their lives in 1984 to come to the United States, they have decided it was time for them to go back.
This was a hard day for everyone because the reality set in. It's not a 4 hour drive any more, it's not picking up the phone and calling whenever. Each time you want to call you have to count 7 hours ahead. It can't just be a spontaneous weekend visit. It's a visit that has to be in the works for months, cost $1,000s, 12 hour plane ride, 3 hour train ride and bus.
The upside is that they have a ticket back for Nov 15, 2012. I know we are all secretly hoping that they move back to the USA.
So far things are looking good. It's almost a culture shock for them. The weather in it self is something to get used to.
Here are some pictures of the day they flew back. It wasn't as emotional as I expected, especially from lil Ricky, since they have a very close bond.
