Early mornings

Waking up at 5am in LA was just barely enough time to get ready and on a 7.20am flight to Mexico. Good that there was virtually no one at the airport. 

I now understand why the Aeromexico flights were so cheap, they weren't even half full. Good for us. Carolina got her own seat and breakfast and napped for a bit before we landed at Mexico around midday. The connecting flight was fine. 

The flight into DF was illuminating:

Me: What's that black stuff in the clouds?
Is: smog
Me: Nooo...
Is: yes, smog
Me (for the remainder of the landing): Really? No. Wow. Oh my god. No.  Really? How do people live here?
Is: that's why I don't want to live here. 
Me: me either. 

Once we landed at Leon, Miss C took a much needed second nap and slept until we arrived at Abuelos' house. 

Up this morning at 6, and did it all over again. Trading two flights for an 8-hour car ride. 

4 hours into ride to Vallarta and Carolina starts to yell out, clearly, "Okaaay. Aw-wight! Leh-go!" she was ready to get out of the car. Ok, Alright, Let's go!


Arrived shortly after 4pm. Everyone went to the potty and then had a nice lunch. She actually ate lunch!!
