The first major hurdle of this marathon trip is the airport check in. We bought ourselves this handy hand luggage scale, which frankly I have no idea how we've lived without it all these years. We finished packing yesterday, and have spent the last 24 hrs taking things out, putting them back in, weighing each bag, etc, until we hit our 50lbs per bag and no more. We have 3 of those bags, by the way! Check in, luckily, went seamlessly, and it helped that we got here 3 hours early. The security guy had to hand screen each individual baby food pack, but other than realizing we forgot our Bjorn/baby carrier or the backpack carrier (yikes! How will we do the hash together in Phuket?) all's good. Griffin had 2 great naps earlier, and our flight is at 6pm, so there is actually hope that he might crash near the start of the flight and sleep through the night, I mean flight. We already put him in his PJs for such wishful thinking.
Well, my beer's getting warm so must sign off. Not sure if this Iphone will work when we get to Switzerland, where we have a 5 hr layover before heading to Bangkok from there. Can't get the upload picture thing to work so stay tuned for that later. Cheers!
