You can't even see all the baggage. There's another bag underneath all of that, a toddler strapped to my back in a mei tei, and I'm juggling paperwork. I love my Inglesina stroller. That thing is a hoss. Rachel helped me fit it to haul a full size suitcase, toddler car seat, backpack, second checked bag, and my huge purse. Yes, we did get quite a few stares walking through the airport, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. It was pretty difficult not having Eeooch in Seattle to help us collect everything, reload, get our rental car and settle into the hotel room. And who's genius idea was it to make cars with the auto/manual option? Why? Seriously.
But we made it. Our room is fantastic... other than the very strong, I repeat very strong smell of curry that is lingering in every pore of every THING in the room. Good thing it's not 90+ degrees and we can leave the windows open to help air the place out. We have a bathroom (of course), kitchenette, huge living/dining area, and separate king bedroom. Both the living and bedroom have their own cable tv and air conditioners. I almost feel like royalty. Indian royalty.
