If I could do a whole blog post and only use a handful of words it would be those three: best flight ever. I think traveling on the red-eye flight helped us tremendiously with Ke’alohi because she slept like a champ. As we were taxiing from our gate to take off, Ke’alohi fell asleep drinking her bottle. At the time, we had no idea that that would be the last time she would be awake for nearly 8 hours! Our flight landed in Dulles International Airport about five hours later and we still hadn’t heard a peep from her. We deplaned, got our bags, hopped on the rental car shuttle and picked up our car and still nothing and we were almost freaking out at that point because we hadn’t expected that in the least. To our surprise, we were able to get her in the car seat and drive the hour and a half to our hotel in Annapolis, MD with her still sleeping!
Our little sleeping beauty woke up as we were pulling up to the hotel and the three of us couldn’t have been more thrilled that she traveled so well.
How lucky! Great job Ke’alohi!
