Hi all,
We will be travelling in the US and Canada in May with our daughter who will be 11 months and approx 10 - 10.5kg (22-24lb). We will be flying into LA and then on to Las Vegas where we will probably just hire a car for a day to do the Grand Canyon. Then we fly on to Vancouver. We go to Vancouver pretty much every year as we have family there and are planning to go back in August so it seems to make sense to buy a car seat to use over there rather than just hire each time. So, we are looking for something that will "grow" with her (good weight range so we aren't buying new car seats every year).
What car seat would you recommend and any legals that I need to be aware of? Also, recommendations of where to buy would be great. My sister-in-law could bring the car seat with her from Vancouver to Vegas as she is coming to baby-sit if we got it shipped straight to her.
Another factor is that we might be loaned a car from a relative and it is a small hatchback (Nissan Versa), so something quite compact would be good, but we don't really mind if we need to hire a bigger car, and with luggage and stroller we might need to do that anyway.
Thanks!
