Almost Famous

For those of you wondering what traveling with a baby is like, we’ve certainly had plenty of experience in the last 36 hours to tell you. When we got on the first flight, Nay cried until takeoff and then slept through landing, a train ride, and a second ticketing line. She was amazing during the flight to Korea, maybe because she’s too young to know the difference.

To get to the fame, though… people barely noticed her on the flight, but once we arrived in Korea, it was like we carried a small superstar. Small groups gathered around her and oooed and aaaahed. The best part was when the cell phone cameras started coming out. Now her picture is in the phone of many people from random strangers on subsequent flights to the airport security guards! In fact, as I began writing this post, a Korean woman on the flight came up with her camera and asked if we would take a picture of sleeping Nay for her. Despite her new found fame, she took it all in stride. We, on the other hand, need to now get used to being completely ignored because of this cute little girl. But that’s a small price to pay for someone so lovely.
