Last week, Kara took her first (of probably many) flights. She and Kathy flew out to San Jose to meet up with me while I was there for a business trip. She did really well according to Kathy and was flirting with everyone within a 2 row distance of her. There was minimal crying and she managed to sleep a little and play most of the time. Luckily Kathy had a whole row to herself, so it made it a much easier flight.
We stayed over the weekend in San Francisco and did a little sight seeing and Kara was a trooper! She just chilled in her *short* stroller all weekend. I'd say there are 2 things to note about the stroller. 1) Kara was rolling gangster style in the stroller all weekend. She would not side up straight, she was always leaned over on her side with her leg up in the air. 2) The non-umbrella stroller that Kathy bought was about 6 inches too short. We had to walk around San Fran pushing it from the side because neither one of us could walk behind the thing and push it without walking on the wheels. You'd think they would make the handle height adjustable...but they don't. The only place it was at the right height was when we were pushing Kara up one of those big hills, but who wants to walk up those all day!?
She really only had one major breakdown and that was at Alcatraz. It had been a long day and we took the night tour of Alcatraz and she was ready to eat and go to bed. She apparently didn't want to be in prison, even if only for a few hours. Maybe she'll remember that when she gets older! :-)
The trip was fun though. We enjoyed the city and having a first little family vacation. Pics of the weekend are below....as you can see, we had some good weather and some San Francisco ambiance weather.
