Our day started early: we got up around 6:30 am and got in the car to drive to the Park N Ride in Minneapolis. From the parking lot, we took a bus to the airport where we got through security with our 231234983264236 different carry on items. At this point, we decided that William was traveling and the rest of us were just his entourage. I had been worried about taking the baby food through the security as it is technically a liquid, but they didn't give us any trouble (by the way, we aren't really using baby food at all anymore - just about 100% table food. But, I wasn't sure about feeding him on the road and at the different events we had planned for our trip. We couldn't have brought very much regular table food because of the security restrictions and I didn't want to worry about finding a grocery store right away when we arrived to pick up food for William. So, we brought the baby food with). We boarded our first flight and William slept until we were getting off the plane. We made our connection and continued on to Boston. From the Boston airport, we took a bus to rent our car, which we drove to Rhode Island.
If you got bored with the last paragraph, that was a car, a bus, a plane, a plane, a bus, and a car. It was a full day of travel, crossing off the new states of Michigan, Massachusetts and Rhode Island from William's list of states to visit! William was UNbelievably good through everything. He wasn't even a little fussy or anything. He was such a trooper. He napped in his carseat and in my arms on the plane. He ate almost all his meals on someones lap or in his carseat. Amazing!
Riding the bus!
