Sleepless on the Airplane

Three very excited children boarded the airplane for our New York vacation - the idea of New York less of a reality than the prospect of the electronics we had charged-and-loaded as "kid treats" for the trip! And, sure enough - they were kept busy and quiet -and also awake! Although we didn't land until about 11:30 p.m. - way past their bedtime, even by California time! - they were all three awake! Jack felt that since we were arriving at our hotel in the (very!) early morning, there was no point in going to bed - instead, he would be among the first UP because, after all, it was morning!... Fortunately a combination of fatigue and the little teddy bears the hotel had placed on each kid's pillow helped him give in to the inevitable, and he (they all!) fell asleep in spite of himself! In fact, he and Alex slept so soundly they didn't wake up until10:30!!!!
