Our journey begins

We left for vacation Thursday evening and started the first leg of our journey. Our flight left Dallas at 9pm and arrived in Baltimore, MD at 1 am. We thought that Isabelle would sleep the entire way, we put her in her jammies and were looking forward to a peaceful flight. Little did we know that she had different plans! She did really good on the plane as usual, but slept no more than 5-10 minutes. After landing we went and got our rental car (which was a bit of a nightmare) and then headed over to our hotel. I almost forgot to mention that our rental car is a Lincoln Town Car, I think that I have just aged about 50 years! It is a very nice car but it deserves it's own zip code. Anyways, because I knew we were going to be coming in so late I got us a hotel in the airport but I have to say that it was not very nice like most Microtels. Two chubby people, a toddler, and a full size bed do not mix. Let's not forget the temperature in the room, a refreshing stuffy 85 degrees. Dave and slept the majority of the evening with no blankets. At 2:30 in the morning who cares, all we cared about was getting to sleep. We woke up the next morning and headed to Sesame Place. From the moment she woke up that was all Isabelle could talk about, what she would do first, who she would meet first, etc. We headed out of the doors of the Microtel as Isabelle said, "that was a really fun place". As you can tell she is easily amused and has low expectations, got to love it! We headed out on our 2.5 hour ride to Langhorne, PA.
