Ukulele and I just returned from our jaunt north in order to visit grandparents and friends. And I must say - the girl likes to fly! We had two flights to our destination, and then two flights returning. Not a peep out of our girl. She did not cry on take-off or landing.... no bottle needed to pop her ears - nothing! GatorMan is very pleased. He thinks this is a clear-cut indication that she will become a fighter pilot! :)
The trip home was very important. My grandmother is 94 - and I am afraid this is the only time she would get to meet Ukulele.... and also it may be the last time I see her. I certainly hope not, but her health is definitely not what is was just a year ago.
Ukulele also got to meet my mom, as well as my dad and step-mom.
The most popular comment on the plane and in the airport was "My, she's healthy!" And it is very much the truth! This girl can put away some milk! Another popular comment? "She looks just like you!" Well, thank you!
We did bring back some extra baggage in the form of a runny nose and congested chest. Ukulele's first "sickness." Not sure if it is from the altitude change, weather change (it was cold and rainy where we went), germs on the plane (which is better than snakes!), or a myriad of things.... Hopefully she'll feel better this weekend..... she starts daycare Monday!
Our little Ukulele is growing up way too fast....

I think its lovely that your grandmother met Ukulele. Our Little Lassie met a very important elderly friend just a few weeks before she suddenly passed away. I'll be forever grateful we made that trip.
Glad the flying was smooth and your Ukulele is a hearty traveler. That probably bodes well for future excursions!
Glad you had a good trip! It's wonderful that your grandmother met your daughter.
