Benson's 1st plane ride

I was really nervous taking Benson on a plane with him being so new and everyone breathing in the same air. Benson did really good though and slept almost the entire time, but other things went wrong...
First off we were late getting to the airport, checking in at 6:02 AM and the plane boards at 6:30. Putting us 2 minutes late for check in and they said it was not a guarantee that our luggage would be on that flight. (We had been standing there at the counter for 10 minutes) Then it's ALWAYS a pain to go through security and even worse with two kids. They even made me unwrap Benson from the blanket because they wouldn't let it go through the metal detector. We finally got seated on the plane, listened to how not to kill yourself in case of an accident, and were next up for take off when the pilot came on the intercom and said a light was on that wasn't supposed to be on and we would have to go back and get it checked. It turned out to really be a problem and they made us all get off the plane and wait for almost an hour for another plane. We got settled onto our new plane and listened to "how to breathe properly" again. FINALLY take off!!! But of course it can't be that wonderful. A man sitting right behind Andrew was snoring so LOUD within 5 minutes and snored THE WHOLE WAY. Then his lovely wife coughed the whole way making the hair on top my head blow with her yakking every time and giving my new baby a full years worth of virus and bacteria all at the same time. When my prayers were answered and the plane finally hit down in Las Vegas I was joyful! Until everyone jumped up crowding the isle for 15 minutes. The lovely couple behind us were hanging completely over Andrew's seat, touching my seat (and still yakking) and the oxygen in the plane was getting sucked out fast with everyone breathing letting in the stench of old leather and plane peanuts fill the air. I was getting claustrophobic quick. And then the plane cleared... and we were off, all of our luggage made it with us and we were greeted by lovely Camille in the hot DRY air of Nevada!
The great joys of flying!
