When our plane decended, coming back from Bangkok last October, I found it very hard to believe that it would be my last flight for a VERY long time..I remember feeling slightly claustrophobic by the thought of beein stuck in Shanghai. And not only that - even Hannah was kicking me as if she would protest that travels would come to rest.
See, by that time Hannah had been a well experienced traveller herself. If Miles and More would credit miles for pregant bellys Hannah would probably have achieved silver card status before she was actually born!
I did my best in training her travelling skills whilst pregant and she travelled very well with me.
I know half a year on the ground does sound not necessarily sound like a long time - but for me, who was even without my previous job, used to hopping on and off a plane every 8 weeks or so it seemed a life time.
Shanghai is a great city but every now and then I just have to get out of this chaos.
So since the last touch down my longest journey has been a taxi ride back to the airport to drop off friends.
And whilst everyone else kept on exciting Shanghai, flying back to Europe or beaches in Asia, I was left behind waving eveyone good bye (yes, I can hear you saying..".ohhh"...:-)
But Finally!!! the day has come and I have a plane ticket in my pocket, making me feel like a normal person again.The journey starts on Saturday and is taking the three of us on our first famil beach holiday to Sanya Hainan) where we went to already two years ago.
It´s a convenient t 2,5 hour plane ride - a good length to try out flying with little Hannah before we go on our big exotic summer holiday. (thought about it: Germany and England are actually an exotic countries for her!)
Hopefully our little one will recognize the sounds of a plane immediately and will be just as happy and excited as I´m going to be when finally walking down the gangway again.
After 6 months I´m ready for take off again- hooray!!
