I've spoken to quite a few people regarding whether it's feasible for Sean to visit for an entire summer, and how much of a pain it would be to get him through the border...

Well, we've got our answer!

He came last Thursday night, and I have to say, when it came time for me to get him at the airport, I was a NERVOUS wreck, thinking they'd grill him about his impending visa and not let him through. Needless to say, I've got him in my arms now (and NEVER want to let go!) but here's what we did and had no problem.

Airport: Tampa International (via Gatwick London)

Ticket: Return date of Aug 24th with option to extend/alter for a 50 pound penalty

Border Officer: What are you doing here? Purpose for your visit? Who are you staying with? (Friends was his answer)

He said the officer LOOKED like he may have started asking more questions, but changed his mind and said, 'Have a nice time' and that was it.

Sean was not asked, nor did he make mention of, our petition.
