Although the kids were initially excited about staying in the hotel, they kept asking if it was "airplane day." Our last night in our old home was Sunday, May 19, but we didn't fly out until Thursday, so the four days of waiting were very difficult for the kids. When the big day came, they were disappointed they couldn't get on the airplane as soon as we got to the airport. They weren't big fans of waiting in the security line either, and since we flew business class, it wasn't even very long! But, alas, it was time to board! They loved the "hallway" to the airplane, and asked a million questions as we were getting seated! They were excited, to say the least!
They were especially excited to get orange juice in fancy glasses before takeoff....
But before even takeoff, we had a sleeper!
(This was after we reached cruising altitude and I reclined her, of course.). Also, the ear plugs were her own request, and she actually kept them in surprisingly!
Meanwhile, little man had a ball choosing movies!
After a couple hours we were served our appetizer, salad, dinner, and dessert....just like any other day :)
I chose some fancy shrimp for my appetizer, along with Coca-Cola Light to drink
I also had a chicken dish for my entree but forgot to take a picture :(
For dessert we all had Dulce de Leche ice cream, someone was engrossed in a movie while eating it!
After dinner, it was bedtime for the grown ups, but a certain boy had a hard time unwinding from all the excitement! He must have fallen asleep sometime though, because when Sleeping Beauty woke me up at 11:15 (Houston time), he was finally out. We ordered her the after hours dinner plate, but she was unimpressed by the fancy cheese and prosciutto! Good thing breakfast was in an hour. She snacked on apple sauce and raisins till then! It's a good thing there was an assortment of breads, muffins, & croissants for breakfast!
And of course she went back to sleep before landing in Frankfurt, Germany.
