Tomorrow we make the long journey to the USA, which marks my son’s first visit to the country he is also a citizen of (in addition to Sweden).

We will be in America for 11 days, so we will be there to celebrate Christmas with my family, and also New Years with my friends.  It should be a great visit once we make it there, and if he (and we) stay healthy.

One thing I am a bit nervous about is the trip there, which is only 9 hours – but then we have a 4-hour layover followed by a 1-hour flight.  As the takeoff and landing is generally my least favorite part of flying with the little guy, and he is also at an age where he wants to move around a lot, I am more than a little apprehensive about the journey there.  Wish us luck!
