Airport Seatac/Calgary

Airport....... Seatac/Calgary
8/20
Day 1

The day started at 3:30am when Eric and Leslie rolled in (our ride to the airport). Eric was stuck at JFK for 7 hours. Jayden woke up probably from kota sprinting down the stairs to greet them. 45 minutes later she was a sleep and I was wide awake! With only three hours of sleep the alarm went off at 5:30.

When we arrived at the airport everything went smooth until security. jayden and I have done a lot of traveling and I know what I can and can't bring. Except this time the lady confiscated my water..... I was so mad, she said it would have been fine if you had it in her cup, but she would not let me pour it in her cup. I know it is $1 water, but still it makes me mad. Take your little wand and wave it over the water and you would see I am not smuggling anything in. I she was thirsty.

Then we had to get on the train and I couldn't find my phone. You would think after being with me for 11 years Mike would know that it's somewhere, I just don't know where. In front of a train full of people he says in a loud voice, " get your ass off the train them."I was so mad. Seconds later I found it. My mom chimes in with calm down or let it go, which then just made me more angry. I said something like that's not helping. She got angry puffed her lips and put her hand on her hip. I then mocked her like I was five........


The airplane to Calgary was tiny. We had to walk on the tarmac to get to our plane. I hit my head three time on the overhead compartment. I apparently am not a fast learner. Then our seats that I called about 6 plus times were right, but wrong. They put the two seats on the side of the plane that infants can't sit on, so I am sitting next to a stranger with jayden. The flight attendant then tells me that I can not pass her to mike or my mom. They would need to physically trade seats with me. Are you kidding me? The whole reason I wanted a window seat was for jayden.

When we arrived in Calgary jayden was screaming....... She was so tired and wanted milk, but there wasn't anything I could do about it. We have a six hour layover so we aren't in any hurry. We stop in the hallway make her milk, but then she didn't want it because she just wanted to run around the airport.

Going through customs the lady was rude to Jenny. She asked where she was going and Jenny replied with London and the lady asked her where at in London...... Jenny was getting a little annoyed and said, "I don't know London." then she wanted to know which London...... Jenny didn't even know there were two Londons and didn't even know what to say. The lady was barking at her about geography and how big of a difference there was and she should know where she is going. When they were done Jenny said thank for the geography lesson.........

jayden is sleeping on the floor tucked in her mini sleeping mat and blanket. So sweet! Whata traveler already.
