Our Dallas Weekend

We spent the weekend visiting K's best friend from college in Dallas. It was a nice relaxing time; we didn't try to do too much, and the kids had plenty of play time. They have a little girl, just a couple of months younger than J, and those two got along famously. E felt left out, I'm sure. A couple of times, she'd come crying to us because the two older kids were playing without her.

We visited the Dallas Zoo, Dallas World Aquarium and the Dallas Galleria, which had a great play area for the kids. J was running around wildly; a few seconds after he'd dash past us, his new friend would come running after asking, "Where's J?". So funny.


We've come to conclude that E's a poor traveller. We've almost always had a tough time with her when we travel. She fusses and cries so much more than when we're at home. And she falls sick quite a bit too.

We flew back to Ontario Airport, which is just 20 min away from us, quite late last night and from the sky, we could see parts of the ground ablaze with forest fires. It was bad enough that we could smell the smoke and feel the sting in our eyes when we landed.
