Family Blog - Our First Sanibel Trip 2015
Sanibel, Florida Day One WOW! Traveling with 6 is definitely not for wimps! We got up at 6 am...an early start for the O’Haras, who prefer to wake up closer to noon. We all had a carry-on bag plus a personal item bag. I had the stroller with Evan in it, and Matt carried his car seat. We practiced before-hand, but that did not prepare us for the packed airplane we were about to meet. Fortunately, DELTA pleaded twice for “volunteers” to check their carry-on bags. “Yes and AMEN!” By the second call, we offered to step in as tribute. And THANK GOD we did. I don’t know how we expected to make it with so many bags and all these kids. Dillon sat by the window. He did GREAT!...they all did. Eden gave up the window to Dillon, and Xander gave up her iPhone to Evan and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse…which the whole airplane got to appreciate during our taxi to take-off. We got early board...
