London!
A few weeks ago, my family of 4 and my in-laws went to London for a few days. We got a cheap flight on EasyJet from Aberdeen to Luton and then hopped a Greenline bus to Victoria Station. From there, we took a short train to Clapham and walked to a family member’s flat. As usual, it was a lot of prep work, but ended up being a very inexpensive way to stay in London for 4 nights! It saved us enough money to be able to do some shopping, eat well, and even see Wicked! I highly recommend the trip, as London is not a city you’ll want to miss!
White Noise
However, you may have noticed I mentioned my family of 4- that includes a 2 and a 4 year old. This trip was their first time to share a room…um, yea. I was stressed about it, but there was not a lot we could do- after all, 6 of us were staying in 1 flat! We were blessed to have the space we did have! So, even though we only got a small carry-on for the flight, I was sure we packed 2 white noise generators, as we always do, no matter luggage restrictions! Sleep is priceless to us, so I would rather re-wear the same clothes than go without white noise.
And, as a matter of fact, those bad boys did the trick again! Even though my son was up crying quite a bit of the first night, my daughter slept right through it! And, when he had settled, we were able to turn our generator on at a low level, which enabled us to do several things:
- hear him if he needed help
- keep our windows open for ventilation but not be kept awake by the night life outside
Once again, white noise, I love you!! Thank you for being effective and portable!
