I can’t believe we actually just did this but…
We brought our kids to the other side of the world.
When we stepped into that warm, thick Manila air outside Ninoy Aquino Airport, I had to let it sink in. We’re here. Really here. And all three kids made it all the way. Look at that!
What possessed us to navigate air travel with two lap infants and a toddler to the total opposite side of the planet? Other than my baseline level of wanderlust, my roots matter more and more to me as I get older. Especially since becoming a dad. And I want to pass that on to the kiddos.
This just might be our biggest adventure yet.
Also, it helps that Hawaii is halfway there as an extended layover, and that we can get A LOT of helping hands when we arrive.
