A long few days travelling!!!

Hi - we've made it to Europe!! It took us about 2 and a half exhausting days but we are now in Germany in a little town called Horb staying with Amos and Beatrix. Due to disruptions in Bangkok our flights were changed at the last minute, at some stages on the day we were meant to be leaving they told us there were no flights for a week!!! Thanks to God and 2 hours of persistent phone calls by Ben we found out 20mins before we had to leave that we were on a flight to hong kong!! What a stressful day and a great way to start a 7 week trip!!! We slept the night in the Hong Kong Airport (hmm very comfy), then flew onto Helsinki where it was completely dark at 3:30 in the afternoon. We then flew to Frankfurt and finally got to go to bed... Unfortunately Caleb wasn't up with the time changes and he woke up at 2:30 in the night and decided not to go back to sleep. We then caught a train to horb - see photo below of cal on bike - they had special compartments for people travelling with kids!! That night cal did the same trick of waking up at 2:30 so by this stage we're all getting a bit tired and grumpy. Next night he made it to 3:45am and then last night he excitingly made it all the way to 6am - Yay!!! Today caleb is a happier boy so lets hope we're finally ready for a holiday!! Despite all that grumbling (sorry) it is really nice to be here and we're excited about the trip ahead!!! We'll try to keep anyone whose bothering to read this updated on our travels.
