\tIf you have to take a long flight… take it on a Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\tI admit… I was not looking forward to taking an international flight alone with Kaitlyn. But the flight from Raleigh to Newark wasn’t full and the flight to Geneva was practically empty! At one point I walked to the back of the plane to get some milk for Kaitlyn and nearly every row was occupied by a single adult, reclined across the two or three seats getting some actual plane sleep! That was more than I could say. Kaitlyn woke up a couple of hours into the flight and when I was finally tired enough to snooze (note to self: don’t order beer with dinner to relax then coffee afterwards. Duh.) she was wide awake. And she kept tapping me and saying \u0093Mommy. Mommy. Mommy.\u0094 I managed to sleep for about an hour while she watched some tv. All in all, she is a very good traveler.<\/p>\n
\tOh, and how did my luggage fare at the weigh in? My big duffel bag was 5 pounds over. The women at the Continental counter tried to help me shuffle things around, but when I opened my food suitcase to reveal its tightly crammed contents, they had to admit defeat. I hate that I had to pay $50 for five stupid pounds. I guess if I’d worn those rain boots then I could have shifted stuff into that suitcase. Doh! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
