Leaving on a jet plane

Our adventure across the Atlantic started with a nighttime flight from San Francisco to London.

We got to the airport nice and early and it paid off because we were given a row of four to ourselves!
Poor Andy though wasn't feeling to hot and just before take off it was evident that he had got tummy flu (which knocked him out for the first three days of our vacation).

We really really hoped that Eoin would sleep the whole way and he sure lulled us into a false sense of security when he fell asleep during take off. We envisaged a quite flight with a glass of wine and a few movies but no just 40 minutes later Eoin woke up and played for around three hours. Eventually he did fall asleep again but on me which was a shame seeing as he had his own seat. But you can't blame the little guy for wanting to cuddle up and feel safe in a huge plane.
We landed on time and got through security and immigration very easily. The hire car was another matter but I won't bore you with the details of a 90 minute wait at Hertz for a pre booked car!!!
Our vacation had begun.
