at frankfurt

we arrived at around 1130 am local time. the baby sleeping. and we were probably one of the last passengers off the plane. getting off was easy but not you have to haul up a flight of stairs afterward to get to the gate and there were no elevator in sight. it was a fairly long walk to the baggage claim area. maybe it feels longer because of baby, but by the time we got everything in order he woke up.

germans seemed to be straight arrow people, but we met some jokers at the immigration station. they were joking about that baby didn't have a signature in his passport and they had to detain him and feed him if they were not busy.

our luggages are waiting for us which was good. and finally we met up with the family on the other side. it was a relieve.

i was tired for sure, but baby was awake and alert at all times until we get to the car. jp's family drove two cars to pick us up.

papa

the blasting heater in the car made me queasy after half an hour or so i could feel myself hurling anytime in the car if we do not make a stop somewhere. i had jp's papa make a rest stop somewhere on the autobahn and we ended up in a coffee shop.

after the shop baby was sleepy and refused to be in his car seat so i nursed him until he sleeps again and held him to sleep all the way home. apparently we didn't get home after 4 hours later and jp and his siblings were worried because they made it back home in 2 hours. i thought his parents had a cellphone, but they did not.
