With his new Lego magazine in hand (a gift from Ian)- this well-traveled boy was ready to take flight yet again.
After 12 days away, Benny and I were ready to make the long trip home to see Daddy and get back into the normal swing of our daily routines.
En route home, we rocked and rolled in several airports.
And after 5 flights for Benny and 9 for Mommy, we were too pooped to pop- as referenced in the "Pre-boarding" photo above in San Fran right before our last leg home.
Imagine me lugging our two bags, the stroller, two plane tickets pinched between my fingers, one 34.4 lb. preschooler, and a half-empty bag of Chex Mix (because, god forbid someone wake up and that bag o' goodies have been thrown in the trash!) trying to get onto the plane gracefully. And no- no body offered to help. The TV's in the airport were reeling with the live news of the Osama Bin Laden showdown, so we were on our own.
Benny, thank you for being the very best traveling partner. Seriously, you are a joy to travel with and make all of the bumps and bumbles of a big trip far more fun. But, most important of all... THANK YOU iPAD! You made our trip sublime! :)
