My mom is from Greece. My dad is from India. I like to swim when it is hot. I enjoy the beach. My favorite color is green. I learned to drive stick shift in Greece. My mom taught me to drive.
I do not like my parents. I write in my spare time. I write about parental relationships. I live in the USA. I like to swim. I don't like to swim in warm water. I don't like sand. I have a car. I am afraid to drive stick shift.
We planned our next family reunion. Do most of your relatives live close by or will they have to fly in? We've got people coming from Greece, India and my uncle Pat is flying in from Tahiti. In total, we're expecting about 100 people from all over the world. That's crazy. Where are you going to hold such a large gathering? My Dad works for a chain of hotels, so most people are staying at the hotel and some people are staying in rental houses.  And you'll hold the get together at a hall in one of the hotels? I'm assuming your Dad can get cheap catering for the event. Right now we're planning on having it under a tent at the hotel. It's basically a wedding reception type set up. The hotel is right on the beach, so as long as the weather is good it should be perfect. That sounds beautiful. Can you have a bonfire on the beach or is that against regulations? I'm not too sure about that. The only thing I know is that we're having plenty of food and drinks and they've planned a fireworks show too. Getting drunk and setting off fireworks. Nothing more American than that. You don't have to be American to love those things! Let's just hope no one blows themselves up. Danger only adds to the excitement.
