A Web Site For Toronto Mommies

21 1/2 hours in a van. 2060 km. Orlando to Toronto.

Son Two was AMAZING!

He asked, "When are we going to be home?" only 6 times - and it was between noon and 3 pm yesterday.

Saturday morning we left at 7:30 am. Son Two watched 5 movies before we stopped for the night:

1. Cars
2. Transformers
lunch
3. Harry Potter and the Socerer's Stone
4. El Dorado
dinner
5. Sponge Bob

Son Two is like a camel. He pees in the morning, at night before bed, and sometimes in the afternoon. He sat in the back of the van with his movies, his DS, and loaf of Italian bread, a box of Mini Wheats, and two bottles of water. That is all that it took to keep him happy for 20 hours!

We stopped for the night at a hotel with an indoor pool. Husband and Son Two swam until the pool closed. Unfortunately, with the time change, we were exhausted and found it really hard to get going Sunday morning.

We left at 9:40 am, and arrived home at 6 pm.

Meanwhile, Nana flew home Saturday night with Daughter and Son One.

Everyone was happy.

Husband and I were very surprised - if the weather is nice, the drive is actually very good. Especially if you have children like Son Two, who are great travelers.
