More Holiday

Ethan really enjoyed being spoiled rotten by everyone, but with lack of sleep and such hot days it was tough for me. I did adore seeing Nics family though!

Our flights were tough, going out he was ok, napped a bit on and off and we coped ok... however flights back were a little odd...

We queued to come home a Virgin Airways rep was asking for people to not check in and take the same flight tomorrow. We decided we would do this and they gave us free flights (for us all) to anywhere in the world bar Oz to be taken in eighteen months. However it meant Ethan went to bed this night really late and still woke early. So by the time we boarded again the next evening he was already tired. The flight took off at 10.30pm but lights werent turned off until 2.30am SA time. Also the 'Skycots' they use are more like carseats and baby is strapped in. That is fine safety wise but if your baby sleeps on their front you end up with a very grumpy and uncomfortable little one who cant sleep... 11.5 hrs and a short nap or two later we got off the plane VERY tired!

Ah well, maybe next time will be better...
