While Olympia was beautiful, calm, peaceful and overall pleasant, not to mention cold, it really wasn't home to Kalypso. That would always be New York and right now she wanted nothing more than the polluted filled air, noisy streets teaming with people and the congestion of New York.
She hated to think of all the school work she was missing by not going to class. Not that she particularly liked sitting in class, but she wouldn't have to make up a ton of work. While she had dragged her feet about going to start, once classes had started, she really hadn't minded going. It did get her out of manual labor for her mother.
Kal occupied herself with wandering around the city. She didn't get the chance for much exploring the last time she was here and now she had nothing but time on her hands. She explored the city when she wasn't spending time in the Hall of Memories (basically the library/records hall) learning about her people's history.
The time here also gave her the chance to get to know her family better, but she missed Jack like crazy. She wished he could have been here with her. It would have made the visit a little more pleasant.
