Seriously though. The worst part of cruises is the last day. You have to get up so stinkin' early just to hurry to the airport and WAIT for your plane.
We got up and went to breakfast at the buffet for the last time. Max was a great eater during breakfast this trip. He liked sitting by himself in the big chairs. (We learned that it was just easier to have him sit in a chair rather than wait for a highchair that might never show up.)
He takes small, dainty bites?
Nope, never. It's always SHOVE your face full!
Happy now...if he only knew what lay ahead of him!
So we took a cab to the airport and got to wait like 4 hours for our flight. Imagine spending 4 hours at an airport with your 1 year old. I tried to keep him happily contained in a small area. That lasted for minutes. Then we spent time walking up and down and up and down and up and down the terminal.
He got pretty silly and started pulling faces.
I brought some packaged baby foods for Max on the plane, beach, etc. I let him try sucking it out of these pouches one day on the cruise and he thought that was the coolest thing ever. He happily enjoyed them whenever I offered one.
So, by late Saturday afternoon we were back at home and back to real life. I have learned that Saturday is the perfect day to end a vacation. It's nice to have Sunday to adjust to post-vacation life.
Sounds like a fun vacation! Bummer about Naussau (sp?). Yes, traveling with a baby is so so hard. So hard that we never do it anymore!!! So you guys are awesome. I'm impressed. Looks like you've made some fun memories.
