The passport arrived this morning. Now we can finally breathe easy.

Rachel, <BR> Great news. Nothing like a little crisis to get the adrenaline flowing! I hope you have a wonderful trip and thanks for educating us on the fact that we have to pay $4.95 to speak to a public servant! I agree with Evan that this is shameful and will be emailing my displeasure to both NY Senators and House Rep, probably White House, too. (I have a little list of items on which to express my opinion and e-mail has made it so very possible!!!)

Fantastique!!!! Hope you have a great time. Thanks for keeping us posted. I'm very glad all worked out. Ran in to same situation before as well.
