baby backpack pushchair image

I am going to Greece in the summer for a couple of months and am really nervous because I have never been away with two children. The eldest is two and youngest will be 7 months old. What did you do for getting them about - did you take your double buggy? I have a cosatto duet lite and I worried it will be too heavy and if you know greece that you will know that the pavements are very uneven (if there are any at all) and lots of hills, but then if I take two separate pushchairs then I will have to rely on another person being with me at all times. what would you do?
Also do you have any advice to give me with travelling with two small children? thank you very much.
Answer
bring lots of toys, a chest carrier or backapck carrier for your 7 month old and bring the doupble stroller just in case. if things do get too bumpy you can hold the other childs hand.
if your husband is going too, let him carry the oldest in the backpack carrier. the kids will still be able to see what is going on around them as well as have a safe place to nap should they get tired.
Oh and can i suggest somthing for the long flight there? i don't know if you plan to have your children sit on your lap or in a car seat. those under 3 years can sit on your lap which IS less expensive because you dont have to pay for the extra seat. However! for such a long flight its unsafe because of the sky's unpredictablility. During flight attendant class we heard of so many stories where the plane was coasint through the sky, then hits a pocket of air in the sky (normal) and dropped like 300 feet or so. if you have a lap child, it can be extremely dangerous.
give your baby a passifier during take off for the pressurization, and since your two year old is too young for gum, you can have them suck on a lollipop.
and use the toys for the long flight. you can let them get up and walk around with you too, itll help with anxiousness. and dont worry if they are crying during the flight..its not your fault. and remember you probably will never see the people on the flight ever again anyway.
have fun!
