So, armed with a goal of being judicious, the Itty-Bitty Airplane Art Kit was born. On our last trip I packed an enormous bag FULL of entertaining toys, art materials, games, and videos, which was great – believe me – but this time around we didn’t have someone waiting for us on the other side with open arms and an oversized car. The trick, I believe, lies in the minuscule summer wardrobe (no bulky sweaters and jeans!) and having one child who doesn’t require a gazillion gadgets to keep her happy and healthy. Can you believe this? This has never happened to me in my life as a parent, and now that I’ve figured out the formula it will be hard to go back. To expedite our trip through customs (and save my pregnant back while someone demands that I carry her – I’m not disclosing any names), we whittled our bags down to just carry-on luggage. I didn’t think I’d have internet access, but low-and-behold, we live in a w-ifi world and I’m somewhat connected! So, my posts may be a bit spotty, but I’ll try my best to add some fresh material while we’re away. Well, truly, we were on the road, in the sky, on the ground, in the sky, on the road again, on a boat, and finally, finally, finally grounded on a rustic island in Mexico. “One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.”
