Leaving..on a jet plane....


So the day has  come and we made our way to the airport..admitedly, there were some nerves while waiting to board. Will our SM like us? Will we find our way through the myriad of paperwork that has been all encompassing in the last few months? Have we filled everything out...with the right spelling...a little sad maybe, but just what’s been on our mind (well  mine maybe, i can’t vouch for cam-although i usually do-ha)

So we finally get to Sydney, then onboard to seats on the a380, huge i must admit. And we settle in to a flight to Singapore before changing again to finally arrive in Mumbai. I keep thinking what will our child look like? Of course it seems a little premature to be thinking these thoughts.or is it really? Hope for the best, plan for the worst. Although, thoughts of prams and cribs and travelling back with a newborn in tow is a little exciting to say the least. I am not sure if Cam feels the same way. He may hijack this blog at some stage and have his say too, but for now its the ramblings of well...me...Mark...dad..pa..what will i be called.

Made it to Mumbai at 2.30am on Friday morning (Mumbai time). settled into our room, and crashed. Locals are very accomodating and have, so far, made us feel completely welcome. Will get some pics up, still waiting to hear from SI, but a beautiful arrangements of flowers were waiting for us, so....I guess they know we are coming !

  1. Do enjoy your time in India. It is such an amazing adventure. I remember us thinking the same thoughts as we arrived in Mumbai the first time. Our last trip was even more exciting thinking as we landed, 'We are on the same soil as our baby.' Very best of luck on your transfer and most of all have fun! Sending a ton of baby dust your way.
