Oman Trip and Dhairya Mama and Himani Mami's Wedding Reception: Part I: The Plane Ride!

In March, we were fortunate enough to take a trip all the way to Muscat, Oman (in the Middle East) for  Dhairya Mama and Himani Mami's wedding reception!  Although we were very excited, we were just as nervous about taking such a long trip with 2-year-old Arjun!  We learned that Krish was old enough to adjust to new timings and manage a 14-hour flight.  Arjun, however, was so excited to be on a plane that he barely slept for 4 hours throughout the entire overnight flight!  We definitely got some scoldings and dirty looks from neighboring passengers as Arjun wanted to look out the window the entire night and both boys were pretty active and excited.  Needless to say, we were relieved to finally arrive at our destination and are hoping Arjun will be old enough to manage a long plane ride before our next international trip!

However, regardless of our flight experience, the boys actually had a blast traveling on the plane: looking out the window, trying airline food, watching children's movies/shows, and doing their work and activity packages given to them by the airline; and we all had an absolutely amazing time in Muscat!

The boys were super excited to be on such a large aircraft
and immediately began exploring their new home for the
next 14 hours!

blast and has been absolutely in love with flying and
airplanes ever since our trip back in March!

each other!  Arjun was pretty much glued to
the window in this pose throughout the
entire flight!
