The planes and Bahrain

Well we made it, we are here! We went on 3 plane rides to get here, it was the first time I'd ever ridden on a plane. The first plane from Jacksonville to Washington, DC was very small and I couldn't sit next to mom. I sat in front of her next to a businessman but he was nice. I sat next to the window and looked out, the cars looked like ants and the rivers were very dark blue, we even flew out over the ocean. On our flights to from DC to Germany and from Germany to Bahrain we were 39,000 feet in the air so all we could see were the tops of the clouds! The plane food was actually good and the Gulf Air flight to Bahrain even had a Sky Nanny to help with babies and kids! I like it here, it is a neat place, they love kids here so there is a lot to do. I won't try the food, it just looks different and smells different and I am afraid I won't like it. Mom and Dad get frustrated and tell me I have to try it because that is what we have here and they don't want me to be hungry. Maybe I will give things a chance after we've been here for awhile but for now I am happy eatng cereal, pop tarts, apples, bananas, melons, and salads........they are the safest bet when eating in funky turkey places!
