The Coles Have Landed

It's been a long, exhausting day, but we're finally in England! We've made it through over 24 hours of straight travel, and are home safe in our temporary Bristol apartment. Frankie was absolutely amazing. She's a real trooper. She stuck with us through the whole ordeal, never complaining or crying once. I think, though, that by the end of the trip she was pretty darn ready to stop travelling and be still for awhile. Heck, we all were.

Matt and Frankie are currently all snuggled up in a big bed together enjoying a little cuddle time and delighting in the fact that they are able to put their bodies in a position other than cramped and upright.

We have big plans to stroll into the city center and get some fish and chips a little later, but for right now, I'm thinking I just might join the rest of the family in that big comfy bed...

So glad to hear that all is going so well! It makes me tired to just think of 24 hours of travel!!! We all know that Frankie is an amazing gal but to think she did so well with the trip really proves how special she is! Not many 4 year olds could make a long trip like that with such ease!

Thanks for taking the time to let us know you arrived safely. It is greatly appreciated. Enjoy the fish and chips ( sounds so English !!) Can't wait to hear more.

Love from Pennsylvania
