Both kids are under 3, the oldest would lap up a trip to Oz, the youngest might aswell be in Bognor.

OS - where are you stopping off ? I was pondering that, I usually stop off in Bangkok but I'm thinking it's not very child friendly. One option is go via the States and break twice on the East and West cost but the LA-Oz flight is a biggie.

Too busy blowing siht up in TF2 atm

Great fun isn't it!! I'm trying to work out how to use the spy to his full potential as most defending teams (I'm just as guilty) will just set up as many fully upgraded turrets on the last capture point making it almost imposable to take it, I think spies with zappers and knives are the way forward.

We thought of going via San Francisco as it's 1 city I always wanted to visit and haven't managed it yet. It's supposedly much nicer for a stop over than LA. We have decided however to take a week in South Africa for a bit of a holiday instead. So flights are 10 hours to Jhb. Then a week break. Then 10 hours or so to Sydney plus a little extra to Brisbane. Off to the gold coast and to a wedding in Brisbane. Flying home the same way. Just 1 kid who will turn 1 later this month.

Several Spies working together or a couple of HWG/Soldier + Medic Uber combos at the same time will deal with that

Spies work best when they have room to manouver and can get behind the opposition either cloaked or disguised. Multiple Turrets means death for a spy as soon as he is revealed.

Flying with kids is hard.

If they are under 2 - then it's really cheap, but they don't get a seat, so for longer flights it's hard.

If they are over 2 - then they get their own seat meaning space, but it costs.

Good luck ! It'll be a grueller but worth it in the end. Don't forget the calpol. On second thoughts I may go to Gran Canaria instead !

Are you going to Kruger ?

ps. spent a fair bit of time in San Fran, nice enough but never really done it for me, the weather is carp

Isn't that what the overhead lockers are for?

One over and one under 2 is a good mix as you can get the seat between you and pile them up.

Thanks will need the luck. Not going to Kruger (have been before and it's excellent) but am going here. http://www.pilanesberg-game-reserve.co.za/index.html

Calpol will literally be on tap
