LINDA STOUFFER, CNN ANCHOR: Elian Gonzalez gets to play with some friends today that he hasn't seen in five months. With more on that and the latest court decisions in the Cuban boy's case, we go to CNN's Patty Davis, live in Queenstown, Maryland -- Patty.</s>PATTY DAVIS, CNN CORRESPONDENT: That's right, four classmates of Elian Gonzalez and their parents arrived here in Washington yesterday. They came to Carmichael Farm. That's Elian's temporary home on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, their first meeting with Elian in five months. And the children are expected to stay as long as two weeks here in the area. Meanwhile, Elian's case continues to play out in the courts: a setback for Elian's Miami relatives who had fought to block Cuban officials from seeing Elian. They also wanted a legal guardian for the boy appointed. And they asked for the court to give their lawyers and doctors access to the boy. The federal appeals court said no to all of those requests. Elian's father is seeking to be his son's sole representative as his case works its way through the courts. The appeals court is allowing the father to intervene, but, as of yet, it is not removing the uncle, Lazaro, from those proceedings. Now, as for Elian and his playmates today, it's partly cloudy here in the Wye River area, expected to rain a little bit. They may not get to use that brand new swing set that was delivered to the farm yesterday. Patty Davis, CNN, live, Queenstown, Maryland.</s>STOUFFER: Patty, thank you.
