Getting Here

I really don't know which is worse, actually getting here, or all my anxiety about the process of actually getting here. Whew. It is a process. Take away all the packing a preparation, that's it's own story, and fast forward to the actual trip. Dave and I, my mom, a 3 year old, a 1 year old, an 88 year old and a combine total baggage count of 15 items plus a stroller. If you are still with me picture taking all this to the airport, two plane rides(with short rushed layover in between), cab ride to hotel, unpack, repack, cab ride back to airport, plane ride, cab ride, boat taxi, cab ride and...........arrival. We all made it, even the luggage! A few pictures to prove it. And yes it IS worth it. But if you would have asked me that a week ago....uncertain.

Leah was such a great traveler! Kate too really! Could not have asked for better. Fingers crossed for the trip home. They will be a month older and much more mature right? What could go wrong?

This was a VERY hot plane ride. I am sure the heat rash started here.  Good thing the flight was only a bout an hour long.

The final stretch. The boat ride with weary travelers.
