We are HERE!!

So I have to say that 10 hours is a very long time to be stuck in an airplane with 350 people.  We loaded at Denver at 5:15 and were the very first in line to get on board.  Blye was SO excited!  We were delayed a small bit, because we were waiting for the water to unfreeze.  I don't know why it was only 12 below.  So we took off and Mr. Blye was stoked.  His attraction with what was going on outside only lasted for about 15 minutes.  The cloud cover made it a little difficult to see anything.  His interest soon turned to the monitor on the back of the seat and that is where the game began.  The airline gives you the great little headphones, the problem was wiggle wort wouldn't sit still to keep them on, so about every 5-10 minutes I was chasing a set of headphones.  The flight was fine through snacks and supper.  By the way Lufthansa has the BEST airline food we have ever had.  Blye got his first which was nice, because the guy in front of him was very tall and always had his seat leaned back, so we could only use my tray to set things on.  I could not believe how much food Mr. Blye had to eat and it was all so neatly presented.  He had chicken strips, with corn and mashed potatoes with the skin for the hot dish, and salad with slices of chicken, pudding with chocolate sprinkles, orange juice, sliced fruit, and a milky way candy bar.  That was just HIS!  For our supper we had a choice of Pasta with fresh marinara sauce or chicken with vegetables and mashed potates.  There was an awesome pasta salad with olives and tomatoes, a roll with rosmary in it ( my favorite) ,a brownie and all the wine, beer, water, and juice you could drink.  After supper they urned the lights down and everyone settled in for an on again off again kind of nap.  Between babies, old men snoring(not Grandpa), and the turbulence there was little sleep to be found for us.  Mr Blye slept very well between Gary and I's chests.  We worked in shifts so neither one of us was too ore for too long.  The thing that was nice was we did have a great selection of movies.  There was Due Date, RED, Wall Street-Money never sleeps,and Any Given Sunday that is all I can remember right now.  I have to say flying is very similar to camping though, when you have to use the restroom it is a little walk and you don't sit on the seat.  Changing Blye was a feat as well there there was a table dropped down over the toilet and chasing him all over the place was a little interesting.  There were only 2 times he actually put his foot in the sink and turned on the water. 
When we landed in Frankfurt, we were met with a Courtesy from Lufthansa and she walked us through everything, they even called an ambulance for support if we needed it.  Have to say that Hospitality in Germany is far better than anything at DIA.  When we arrived in Dusseldorf we had the most awesome airport worker who came up with his wheelchair and then stayed and helped us with all of our luggage and took us to meet Ralph.  Ralph is the driver for the X-Cell Center, who fit in great with our bunch.  We knew it right away we were in good company when he popped off right away.  I was taking pictures like a mad woman and he was pointing out all sorts of things along the way.  We arrived at the hotel and realized that we hadn't ate lunch and ended up eating supper at 5:30 here at the hotel and went to bed immediately.  I think that the ease into this time zone isn't as bad as we thought it would be.  We were wiped.
