We took both of our kids there when the first one was 6 months and the second when she was 4 months. We used the “snap and go stroller” http://strollerreviews.net/2009/10/11/the-baby-trend-snap-n-go/ This helped reduce the amount of gear carried, mind you when we took both of them the oldest needed her own carseat. Interesting, when we went in 2005, people stared at our car seat, especially the cab drivers who grumbled about pulling out the seatbelts they had carefully hidden away. By 2008 when we brought the 2nd one over, carseats were becoming very popular with the middle-upper class there. All baby stuff was really expensive there, so we would leave a bunch of it with my wife’s extended family for their kids. It was much appreciated.
