Guest guest Posted August 14, 2001 Report Share Posted August 14, 2001 We are back from Denmark it was lovely to see my family but I am exhausted and I have absolutely NO IDEA why I said to my dh it would be fine for him to go directly to first Munich then furt yesterday and today not to return til Wednesday evening.. I am NEVER EVER AGAIN travelling with 2 small kids on my own in a aeroplane.. I was so stressed going back (Eloisa decided that was the time to start biting and kicking and hitting just as the food had been placed on our little pop down tables FUN.....) at least on the way back we had afree seat next to us (didn't on the way out) So Eloisa got her own seat but I was so close to really starting shouting.. The woman in front of us (seat wise) was travelling wish 2 small kids same age as mine (and her mother) but they seemed to have about as many problems as I did and 2 seats back was a couple with 2 small kids and they where having trouble to so you can imagine what a wonderful flight it was... then on the way out Eloisa turned into Miss charm and was waving and smiling and going bye bye to all the stewards and captain so they all went AWWWW (like butter wouldn't melt in her mouth) Oh we then get into the airport and down to the luggage collection and a firealarm starts to ring (in another area) but for " security reasons " they would then not let us out of the luggage area and we where stuck there for 20 mins waiting in a queue but they did not stop letting flights land so you can imagine how full it was becoming...... taxi driver that was arranged to pick us up actually fell asleep at the wheel whilst driving us home (in a lull in traffic but you can imagine just how safe I felt with having him driving me and the kids home) and obviously NO FOOD at home so we all had pizza for dinner and went for a fried breakfast today.. shopping to do later ;o).. Oh I have also had a tummy bug since Saturday so I was REALLY in the mood to deal with all this .... But apart from that it was lovely.. Phoebe actually twice said a Danish word when I was around (then was very embarrassed as she does not want to speak Danish to me or dh) but on a positive plan she understood everything my Danish family said to her (in Danish) and if I was not in view would respond in Danish.. then switch again immediately he second she saw me or daddy around lol... little tike... Eloisa leaned a Danish word (her second) NEJ..... (no - true to her form lol) and is using it ALL the time at the moment.... My father was so pleased that we had come over for his birthday so it made it all worth while and I Phoebe loved spending time with her cousin and my mother and Eloisa seemed to really bond this time so it was the right thing to do ;o)... I fell into bed last night at 10 15 pm and passed out like a light was awaken by Phoebe at 8 30 am and could have happily slept longer ;o).. still cant complain... and at least we are home ;o) Lonnie Phoebe & Eloisa's mama & expecting a Christmas delivery... My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what you start. So far today, I have finished 2 bags of chips and a Chocolate cake. I feel better already.
