Flying Toasters

Last night we did our first big drive in the R.V. I noticed a potential problem. I get extremely nauseous on the R.V. I thought being able to move around and change diapers, fill sippy cups, and fix snacks while driving would be wonderful, but not if you feel like vomiting. Other than that, the first day has been great. We did a 6 hour drive, the kids went to sleep wonderfully in their little bunks, and we slept our first night in the driveway of our friend's place in Petawawa.
So far only a couple mishaps. We couldn't figure out how to get the dvd player/t.v. working last night while we were driving...that will have to be fixed. ASAP. And we had a cupboard open at 12:30 in the night and the toaster came flying out and crashed on the floor. Luckily the kids didn't wake up. But there were crumbs everywhere. Probably the worst thing that could have fallen out of the cupboards. Soren also stuck his head out the window while we were flying down the 401. We had to have a big talk about not opening the windows while driving. Today, Soren climbed to the top of the RV when Dad wasn't looking. So we've also had to have a talk about not climbing the ladder at the back of the RV. And now, we're enjoying the Petawawa scenery and dinner with our friends before we head off to Sudbury tonight. Tomorrow, I am going to see the big nickel for the first time.

  1. Yes! Always wanted to see that big nickel. Glad you're working out the bugs. Maybe there's some kind of pill you can take to help the nausea? Love you guys!

  2. Linds - you might want to try some Herbal Gravol - it won't make you drowsy and it may help you keep your lunch until you get your "RV legs". Am loving your blog!! XOXOXOX

  3. I knew I could count on Soren to add some fun stories with his sneaky skills. Hopefully all your cupboards stay closed tonight!
