Back

We just got back yesterday afternoon from a 2-week trip to Taiwan. It was a fun trip overall. Mommy and Daddy spent quite a bit of time preparing for the trip. All the prep work paid off though. The kids survived the long plane rides and airport waits extremely well. Daddy and Mommy were both pleasantly surprised. We of course expected the worst, but it really wasn't too bad.

The trip itself was a bit fast-paced because Mommy's parents came on the trip too and had a full agenda planned for each day. Since Nai-Nai and Ye-Ye haven't been back to Taiwan in over 35 years, they had a lot of family they wanted to see. We traveled all over the eastern side of Taiwan from Taipei to Kaohsiung.

We are all seriously jet-lagged. The crossing multiple time zones thing has really messed up our internal clocks. The kids got up at 2am this morning. Mommy and Daddy made them go back to their rooms til about 4:00am or so.

In Taiwan, the kids got up at 2am and then 3-4 am and then 5 am. It took them about a week to get back to a normal sleep schedule. Now Mommy suspects it will take at least another week for the kids to get back to a normal sleep/wake cycle.

Mommy is still downloading and organizing pics so more info and pics are forthcoming. Now if Mommy could just get some sleep....
