We made it to Melbourne!! We left Vancouver on Friday the 20th at 2100 and arrived in Melbourne at 10am Sunday the 22nd (Melbourne time) which was 5pm Saturday in Vancouver. The flights went quite well considering. I was very proud of Bennett on the plane. He slept 8 hours on the first leg and 1.5 hours on the second leg (granted I did give him a little sedative!!). He kept his seatbelt on when he was awake. He watched some movies and played with some small surprises I had brought. He did have two meltdowns in the airports because he wanted to walk around and not stand in line, but overall, it went much better than I expected. Glenn was a breeze...she slept, ate and played on her usual schedule. She's forever the perfect baby.
We've been slowly getting used to the time change. We were all up in the middle of night for a few hours. Hopefully we'll only be a few more days before we are all on Melbourne time. The house we staying in is quite lovely. We have yet to go enjoy their inground trampoline though - the weather has been too wet. The town of Eltham where we are staying is quite lovely, despite being quite hilly! I somehow imagined Melbourne to be much flatter!
Stay tuned for more updates as time goes on.
