B1 Going to Toronto

My big baby is going to Toronto by himself.  He is a little anxious.  He has only travelled with us or tour Taiwan with his girlfriend.  He is still going with his girlfriend but still thinking about the 6 weeks that he will be by himself and grandma.  Grandma is all excited and looking forward to receive him. 

He travelled to many countries since young.  The army stint makes him more mature and confident.    However, he has not independently travelled anywhere.  So it will be part of the growing up process.  For the first time, he is alone to figure out what to do in his birthplace.  Although we visited Toronto a couple of times in the last 12 years, he does not know the system, the way of life there.  Rather he has forgotten his growing up days in Canada. 

Anyway, with grandma there, there shouldn't be any issue as there will be someone to lean on and ask and clarify any question or issue that arises.  As a father, I think it is time for him to learn independence and taking charge of himself.
