RDU to SLC

Today we flew to Utah. Victor thoroughly enjoyed flying on an airplane and riding the shuttle bus from long term parking.

The four of us sat in one row, and it wasn't too bad. Zeke and Victor were downright good.

There was some crying from Victor when Zeke dropped a Matchbox car on his head. It was a 1957 Cadillac, so it really hurt.

There was also a moment of panic when the baby's rice cereal went flying. Most of the escaped cereal hit Victor's left leg, but some of it hit the man in front of us. Jeremy tapped him on the shoulder to apologize, but he waved it off. What a nice man.

The flight was just under four hours. Victor used the potty twice. Zeke used a diaper at least three times.

Jeremy adds that Victor flushed the toilet while sitting on it, which created a scary vaccuum noise and sensation. Fortunately, Victor gets a rush out of being startled (he has since he was a baby), so he thought it was funny.

How fun! I hope you have a great time while here. Wish I could see you while you were here...but sounds like you'll be busy, and we're pretty busy this weekend too! Say hi to your family for me.

Travel by flying holds so much awe and excitement for a wee one... For grown ups however, it's more like being herded like cattle.
ha.
Have fun on your trip!

Sounds like it was ridiculously uneventful for a flight with two small children! :)
P.S.--We just watched a Mythbusters rerun where they tested the myth of someone getting suctioned to one of those airplane toilets. Of course, it can't happen. Holy cow those things used to scare me, but no more! Thank you, Mythbusters for busting that myth. ;)
Have a very fun visit with your family!!
