We made it.

Leaving Tuesday night June 13th for Minneapolis mn for our hotel and car babysitter while we are gone went very smooth. After a pretty unsuccessful night sleep it was finally departure day. We had most of the day to kill so i decided to treat myself to a pedicure and manicure while will and lyndin layed low. 2pm it was time to move our car to long term parking and head to the airport. After walking right through security all we had to do was sit and wait. Since Lyndin was out of her routine she took a nap so that helped time go by. We were able to board the plane early in order to get Lyndin' s carseat secured and ready to go. For the first flight we had seats in the middle row. That was a tight fit especially with the car seat. But non the less it worked. Lyndin did great on take off and loved having her own tv screen and movies to watch. We were provided supper and breakfast which wasnt the best but after the second  flights food we found out it was awesome. 8 hours later and little sleep for us all we were on the ground in Amsterdam. We had a 4 hour and 20 minutes layover and let me tell you it was the longest layover. Lyndin was dead tired and fighting sleep and through a huge fit. No matter what we tried she would not stop. It was a rough couple hours for will and i but as soon as we got in the plane lyndin was sleeping and quiet. International fights are terrible compared to american flights. Terrible food. No charging ports and they kept the lights on.  9 hours later we landed in niabroi kenya around 10:15pm their time.

We had to go through immigration as soon as we got off the plane. We we escorted to the front of the line since we had Lyndin with us and basically walked right through. After waiting for luggage we were off to look for our driver. 25 minute car ride and we arrived to grandma linda and antie Jenn waiting for us.
