we made it!! the flight was great. sloane slept wpg to TO and slept/hung out all the way to london. no crying! we got a few compliments on what a good baby she is. the flight atttendent gave her a sticker for her baby book. i, however, did not sleep so well....couple hours maybe. i'm not a fan of the 777 first class set up....no sympathy, i know, but for those of you that know what i'm talking about know that it's not great for travelling with a family. i was able to fully recline and sleep with sloane next to me, but it was pretty crammed. there was a bit of exitement on our flight...a man was taken off our plane when we landed by 6 armed police officers. i asked around about what happened, but no one knew. strange.
we are now in lymm, just outside manchester staying we julian's cousins jo & mark. beautiful house. i am just now able to see outside, as it was dark when we arrived yesterday. we are surrounded by a trees and greenery. it's fall, so some of the trees are bare, but there is still a lot of green mixed with fall colors. there is even a creek running through the backyard. we'll head into town later today down the path that winds along the creek.
i think we got an alright sleep. sloane was up at 1 am, wide awake, ready to start the day. finally she went back to sleep after 3 am and slept til 10 am. not bad. hopefully i'll sleep even better tonight! sloane and i were wondering around the house in the middle of the night and came across casper, the cat. her and casper were eyeing one another up. sloane grabbed her head and i think was trying to put his ears in her mouth....she probably thought they were crinkly like her toys ears. anyways, i got sloane's hands away from casper and no one was hurt.
julian is up now, so i think i'll get ready to head out! first stop: liverpool.
