stroller while travelling?
Only a few hours left and June is almost over. One half of 2008 flew like a breeze, just like that. First half is finished, I am so looking forward to the second half of the year with so much excitement. There’s a wedding, a homecoming and lots of travelling. I can’t wait!
Pristine and I will be taking a trip back to Japan in 5 weeks! Although this is not the first time that we’ll be travelling together without M, (I have done two trips from Japan to the Philippines when Pristine was younger but the flights were short), this is the first long flight that we’ll have together. We’ll have a short stopover in Hong Kong and then transfer to another plane going to Narita (Japan) - which reminds me of my worries.
What if she’ll sleep when we land in Hong Kong? Then I’d have to carry her around the huge airport along with my hand carry baggage and what nots looking for the boarding gate for our next flight. She’s already heavy now and heavier when she’s asleep. I am seriously considering to buy a simple fold and go stroller but I have this feeling that strollers are more than a burden than help.
Any thoughts?
Take the stroller. Even if she is not sleeping, it will be quicker to go from one side of the airport to the other, without her having to walk. She won’t wander off either. And she’ll get tired if you walk far
stroller yes. yes. yes. of course, we have the one with the basket on the bottom, but it goes with you to the gate, it’s there when you get off the plane, it makes carrying everying a breeze and the kid stays put. i say yes to stroller!
Pristine is Maya’s age, right? I’m travelling without a stroller for the first time this summer (by myself, with two kids heaven help me). She’s just too big and heavy for it, it’s not worth shlepping. M’s quite big for her age though, and I’ve got Itai to help a bit with the bags.
