When we first came to Brooklyn, NY last fall everyone sounded sort of funny. I still can't understand half of what my baby sitter, Patsy says although she is from Caribbeans. Now I can understand most of everyone without having to decode every word, even our doormen sounds normal. Stepping off the airplane in Utah people sounded very Utish. I am kind of used to it since there is a big difference with CA. Then when I went to pick up Jeremy, he sounded so New Yorkish. But then we flew to San Diego and I had to adjust my ear again. If I fly to CA and take the test there, would my results change again?

Hmm, that's interesting. Mine said I'm from the midland (Pennsylvania area) but I think I definitely have a Seattle accent. Oh well, maybe I answered something wrong. ;0)
And if it makes you feel better, even after living in the Caribbean for a year, I still could only understand 85% of what I heard!
This is so funny Nadia! You have clearly adapted well! It is so wonderful to see pictures of adorable Sonia! She is a sweet red cheeked angel!
