Hi divine1966,
Thank you so much for your speedy response. I appreciate anybody who can give that straight-forward answer.

And you are a nice person. I can tell. How funny you mention the conditions of making such a trip because when I've contacted my parents, who are core people in my support group, they said almost the same thing about this issue. Only one exception though, was when my parents helped me get to the airport on a pair of study abroads. And they were more than happy to do the job.
