DD pie on a plane

Ya ya I know its been a few days but, catching up with Captain is a bit more fun than slaving over a hot computer. So time to catch you up on all the things that I lived through these past few days.

So kiddos advise time before anything else...

When you are packing your carry on bag for an eight hour or more flight to a popular tourist destination on a family holiday like say “Memorial Day” bring an extra change of clothes with you. Now ill tell you why...

First let me say to parents who fly with children, KEEP YOUR KID FROM KICKING MY SEATBACK please. The small plane ride to my connection in Seattle, was perfect the child behind me was so sweet and her father was reading her facts about flying and making me laugh the whole way. Bravo strange father who sat behind me and payed attention to his child. Unlike the mother and grandmother of the little girl who was sitting behind me kicking me for six hours. She was not told once to stop even though it was obvious what she was doing. Most people would have said something, however I am a chicken and thirty scenarios played through my head before I could say anything, all of them ending badly!

Oh right change of clothes. So planes recycle the air in the cabin, what this means is any “stink” or “smell” a person makes is circled around the plane over and over. Ok now imagine that every other three seats is occupied by little ones. Cute as they are they tend to get stinky after a few hours, especially the ones in diapers. By the end of the flight I smelled like a rinsed out and reused dirty diaper. Lucky misfortune had taught me to bring a spare set of clothes, so I was fresh as a daisy in fertilizer after changing in a airport bathroom, just before meeting Captain.
