Jaylene initially planned to accompany her father back home to celebrate the New Year with her grandparents. However, Joseph Thompson had already booked tickets to Mount Sanford on the second day of the New Year, so she could not travel with Randy Ziel.
Joseph Thompson had planned to book a first class flight ticket for Randy Ziel. But Ziel mentioned that his hometown was far away from the provincial capital. Taking the airplane would require transferring to a car twice after landing which was not as convenient as taking a train.
Eventually, Joseph Thompson booked a soft sleeper train ticket for Randy Ziel and even drove him to the train station. He also bought a load of gifts for Randy to take home.
