My late MIL’s family emigrated from Sweden in the early 1900’s. Mom was a first generation American. She was born a couple of months after her family arrived. My FIL took her to Sweden for a visit in the 70s. Mom loved it and got to meet family she’d never seen. I’m glad she got to see it then.
Oh, those peaceful, fun-loving moozlums.
We have the same family situation, but with Australia. I have a whole raft of cousins there that I’ve only seen a few times in my life. Dad and Mom took her parents there for a month when I was in High School; Dad has been back 2x since and also to New Zeeland - which is his favorite place on Earth.
