Our flight to Almaty, Kazakhstan was much better! The quality of flight and service were better than the American Trans-Atlantic flight—we were given warm cloths for our face/hands (reminiscent of The Wedding Singer), little baggies with socks, eye masks, water, and crackers, and frequent drinks and good food. We were able to secure a bulkhead seat for this leg of our trip, which made life so much more pleasant and comfortable! Why, you may wonder, is a bulkhead seat so important? Well, Addie was able to utilize the bassinet that can be attached to the “wall” of the bulkhead directly in front of our seats. She nursed as we ascended, and fell asleep—and slept until we woke her up shortly before we began our descent. While we are sure Addie enjoyed her sleep, we may have enjoyed it even more as it gave us the opportunity to get some rest too! We were able to sleep much of the flight, with a few wake-up calls for food and beverages.
Addie & her daddy in the Germany airport, those are some tired eyes!!
