it's back to reality for us. we got back in the not-as-cold-as-should be alps last monday, almost midnight. we were kindly picked-up by pareng R from the airport, as we left the car with them when we left 3 weeks ago.
it was out best vacation so far! to think we had two little boys in tow now, we enjoyed this holiday more than we did our last ones when FL was as tiny as SA now. our flight leaving switz was relatively easy, FL was very good - he got bored, yes, but he didn't have tantrums and he listened and obeyed. he did enjoy sitting by the window with his own lcd screen where he can watch disney's cars as many times as he wants to. he ate a lot in the plane - food, of course! :p
while little SA had a bit of a hard time getting his sleep and we barely slept, as well, we were quite still in high spirits. i mean, we expected worse. it was really a challenge for him not to sleep in his own sturdy crib, plus the fact that he barely gets to sleep on someone's arm. the poor angel really had a tough time on the trip but he was still a good baby, as much as he can help it!
we had an activity filled holiday, before we left, we made sure we had a schedule to follow, allow free days, as well and made sure we had a few days specifically dedicated for a holiday - and that was in bohol. we made sure we got together with as many relatives and friends as possible - which we did, but some of the those GT's were quite short, but we were still glad we squeezed in as much as possible. it was great catching up friends again!
so, even if we got sick - the boys got sore eyes, we all had coughs and colds. we had a really fun stay. we are now so looking forward for our december return... this time, my brother will have their church wedding. it's so nice to attend weddings - feels good to be made-up and dress-up again! :)
to sum our trip, we had a 5-day beach holiday, 2 weddings in the family (a church and a civil one), get-togethers with friends, a family reunion, a pamamanhikan, food tripping in many restaurants, shopping in divisoria, baclaran and malls and lots and lots of fun with cousins for FL & SA. now that's worth all the 17-hr trip for a 3-week stay! :)
