Weekend in Sicily

Despite Gaia's adventures with high fever last week, we decided to follow our plans and flew to Sicily last Friday for Federico's and Francesca's wedding. Probably we are not the most responsible parents in the world but she felt much better on Thursday and we knew it's 'only' the side effect of vaccines... In the end she was fine and happy as always while travelling. We didn't visit much (only Trapani and Marsala that weren't either too impressive), but it was good to spend time with friends and participate in the happy event. But but but... it is very tiring to go to the wedding with the running kid! We couldn't eat normally or sit together at the table, or speak to anybody without our eyes focused on her. Gaia got hiper excited and fell asleep only at 2am after 20 rounds with a balloon in her hands! Aaah, I want a grandparents' service available please!
And still, we have so many doubts after that trip: is it good for her to change a routine and surroundings so often? Or is it only for our pleasure? Are we bad parents in the end??? I hope not. I hope it will help her to be an open kid, easily adaptable to changes. We will see.

 And women are cooking?


 And now I pronounce you husband and wife - well done Marco
 

PS. I also have a few complaints to file after the trip: against Ryanair that charges an infant ticket without the right to a hand luggage; against Ciampino airport that doesn't have baby changing facilities and a rental company that didn't book us the baby car seat and for which in the end we had to pay 80 EUR! I'm in the fighting mood.
