early 6am start to heathrow, and goodbye 2 turid and nils- an absolutely lovely and relaxed and fun time for big and small semb wevers!
Super hectic at the airport, repacking bags and suitcases while dealing w grumpy 4 semb wevers, nappies, bottles, dropping shoes and toys, and trying to carry all our stuff and trying to look like we've got it all together mentally. ha!
but we did make it onto the plane without too much dramas. Nirvana's first comment on plane was "oh, it's going to be difficult to sleep here". Nirvana was occupied w/ lots of stickers, crayons, books, etc, especially a very popular Thomas the train activity book from turid :-) and armada was mostly sick sick sick, fever, coughing and snotty! she needed attention the whole way, and slept only minutes at a time, crying lots. There were no other kids to play w/ on the plane as we had hoped. Fuel stop at Dubai, the kids ran around letting out some steam. On the next leg to Brunei Nirvana slept fine, but armada upset all the way :-(
