We departed Boston on the 28th of January. The first leg of the trip (7 hours to Los Angeles) was fairly uneventful. In flight entertainment was limited, but the kids had Fruit Loops so all was right in their world.

Flight to LAX … thank you, Virgin Airlines for your ambient magenta and black- lighting;)

Lunch at LAX, although very un-Californian, we scoffed down giant hamburgers – our last fill of American food!

The second leg, Los Angeles to Tokyo, was a little more trying. Mama Aldous got air sick seven hours in. If only throwing up in Japan was on my  bucket list. Thankfully Michael was on point and the children were fabulous little travellers who slept and enjoyed the in flight entertainment and lots of snacks.

Checking out our “home” for the next 21 hours!!! A huge plane, equipped with an army of “Singapore Girls.”

Getting cozy thanks to some travel necessities from good friends:)

Konnichiwa, Japan!

Ahh, junk food, the universal soother. Despite the worried look, Jack was quite content.

Good morning, Singapore! in the words of Maggie Lou “this is the moment we’ve all been waiting for!”
