The airport was a breeze, and the plane actually took off early (for a change). Owen was happy playing with stickers, watching Blue's Clues dvd, and playing with the three-year-old sitting behind us for the first 2-3 hours of the plane ride. He was then well-fed by the KLM flight attendants and fell asleep soon after.
Soon after that, Dada and moma became a little tired, and little Owen was very uncomfortable.. although we did have a whole row to ourselves. We gave Owen 1/2 teaspoon of Benadryl which actually wiped him out for the remaining 5 hours of the trip. Overall had a great plane ride, although it was long... They kept the movies coming, but didn't catch much of them.. I think they played You, Me & Dupree, Devil wears Prada, and the latest Pirates of the Carribean movie. That benadryl really wiped out Owen, as he kept sleeping until we got to the passport counter.. Here are some pics from the airport, and when we arrived at the de Gaaper hotel.. where mommy had a well deserved coffee a daddy snuck in a Belgian beer.
we're here

Sooooooo glad to hear everything went so well.. What you're doing is so exciting and adventuresome. All these new and different experiences for Owen - what a rare life opportunity - we only wish we could share, too! But, the Northwest wouldn't be the same if we left. So, Owen you need to update us about world ways when you return. OK! Love you! Grandpa
What a great adventure for Owen! You had made it to have good flight and kept Owen occupied to do. Yes, I agree with Kenn, "What a rare life opportunity". Let us hear more of the FidFam's Adventure! Love you, Nana
(P.S. I could not change to Nana
