Our trip back to the Netherlands was uneventful. Which is all we can ask for when traveling with two children and a dog. Yes, we brought our dog back with us this trip. (Thank you Grammy and Grumps for taking such good care of Tucker the first few months we were in Holland).
We left Boston on Wednesday the 30th of September and landed Thursday October 1. The kids slept a few hours each on the plane and all of us slept in the shuttle from the airport to our house (3 hrs). The dog arrived parched from barking so much, but seems unscathed by flying in cargo for 6 hours.
It is day 6 and we are just getting adjusted to this time zone. They say it takes children 1 day per every hour of time difference. That is right on track. It is a six hour time difference. Last night was the first night that Katie stayed in hr bed all night and Andrew slept through the night.
It was sad leaving our friends and family in the US but it feels good to get back to our routine and "real" life. Katie has adjusted back to school very well and Andrew just goes with the flow.
