We are back on US soil and it feels good....
Our travels were quite uneventful. The taxi picked us up Satruday at 6:45am (we were up at 5:45am) to catch the 7:26am train from Maastricht to Eindhoven (about an hour). We switched trains, luckily our next train was on the same platform, and we reached the Amsteredam airport with plenty of time to get a snack and board our flight. Our only hiccup, so to speak, was that our flight was one hour late leaving/arriving.
Ned and I divided and conquered...
We had:
1 stroller
3 large roller duffle bags
1 diaper bag
1 carry on tote
2 Britax carseats
2 laptops
2 kids!
I managed the kids... didnt loose any! Ned managed the luggage on an off the trains...didnt loose any!
The kids were good on the flight. Andrew napped for about 2 hours at the start of the 7 hour flight. Katie did not, but enjoyed watching endless videos. Both were exhausted when we finally got to our shuttle service and fell asleep. Katie slept from 5pm-3:30am and was ready to start her day! Andrew, because he napped we think, slept from 9pm-6am. (awesome!). The next night was the reverse... Andrew slept from 7pm-3:30am and was ready to start his day! And, Katie slept from 7:30pm-6am. Oh well, they say it takes about a week to adjust.
We are tired, but happy and excited to see our friends, house, dog and all that is familiar.
