Lisa enjoys her Count ChoculaIn honor of our last day in New Zealand and a long travel day, we all slept in- thank you Lillianna! Then we all went to the Auckland museum where Lisa and Ian gave us the highlights tour of the place. They had one section on volcanos that I think I was glad to see on the day we were leaving. You sit in a mock living room where a news program starts to play and then the volcano errupts, the house shakes, the lights go out and pretty much you are no more. Oh my! Tornados suddenly feel much safer.
Home for lunch, naps, and repacking, then back to the airport for the return trip home. Lillianna again did really, really well. She was a bit disapointed that there was no Barney on this flight and made due with Mickey Mouse club and some others. Thankfully, she again did sleep for a good chunk of the flight and thankfully this time did most of that when the lights were off, so we didn't have to worry so much about her waking others up. Mike and I didn't get much sleep and were very happy to be off the plane. We made it through our layover in San Fran. and home. Lil slept through part of that flight home and loved having the portable DVD player on that flight. Then we were in O Hare where Mike's parents picked us up and brought us home. Good to be in our own beds!
An amazing trip!
