Getting to Sydney... not a short trip!!

We left Bangalore on an 11pm flight which connected in Singapore. We were not sure how this would all pan out with the kids. They do call it a red eye for a reason!!

So, we got to the airport a full 4 hours before our flight and flew through the new "heightened" India security in about 5 minuteds!! The kids read a bit...
Andrew helped tag our luggage (this reading and writing thing is really paying off for us now!!)
And they played who can make who laugh first until their sides hurt!!

When we finally boarded the plane, I sat with the girls (good choice!!!)


Lauren was asleep before takeoff... and Taylor not far behind.
Andrew did not sleep a wink on either flight... not a surprise, since they bring endless supplies of food and he had video games at his seat! When we finally arrived in Sydney (after nearly 24 hours of travel!!)... he made it through dinner (barely) and promptly fell fast asleep in the restaurant!!

So, we are here, safe and sound. We all slept until noon our first 2 days (I joke you not!)... so can't say much about the breakfast food here :) I will try to post a blog every 2 days or so while we are here. So far... LOVE IT!!
