They do, it's rather alarming. Oh she will. She's pestered me about going there ever since I was convincing her about the move to California. I may have used it as a bargaining chip to gain her approval in the matter.
It is, but given the long travel time from London, it wouldn't be practical for them to be here for one week. That and I have the sneaking suspicion my father has something up his sleeve for wanting to be here that long. My mother is probably only coming because she wants to see Los Angeles and see if she can spy any famous people there.
