Well, that does kind of depend on how far away they
were, and the speed of the motorcycle.  One would
assume it's not as fast as a plane (unless there's
magic to deal with wind).  If it's only twice as fast
as car, then it's possible that the entire day was
spent traveling, with just a few stops for diaper
changes and feedings, isn't it?
