Cranberry Lake (part 1: travel)

Here we are at beautiful Cranberry Lake in the NY Adirondack Mountains. We've enjoyed a couple days of incredibly beautiful weather and an abundance of kind, generous, loving family. No luggage, but that wasn't even a problem - we are so well taken care of! 

 

Of course, traveling with two toddlers and a pet is never totally uneventful. But it all went pretty well, considering. Airport security was, of course, a comedy. Shoes and jackets off everyone, kitten out of the carrier, id in hand and through the metal detector -- one at a time? right... no problem? We managed, and then waited, and waited, and waited for the luggage inspectors to get everyone's stuff back to them. So we're camped out at the end of the conveyor try to entertain ourselves and juggle a freaked out kitten a runaway one year old, and a curious three year old. So now I'm holding the wiggly kitten in one arm, and Camila in the other, and I'm asked to remove the tops off their sippy cups. (with my 3rd & 4th hands?) sure. no problem? It all gets done to their satisfaction, we get our shoes back on, our stuff repacked and headed out to our terminal where we rode the escalator for an hour. :-)
