Not to want to take a baby to a funeral?

Sadly my DH's gran died this week at a grand old age of 95. Her funeral is week after next in Yorkshire (we live on the South coast!). However, we've got a 6 week old DS (who'll be 7.5 weeks by then) and I really don't want to take him to the funeral, not just because it's a bloody long way to travel but also I don't think it'll be appropriate for a baby to go, given his tendency to cry at the most inopportune of moments.

My PILs have said they are fine with this but my SILs think I'm being ridiculous and that I should be going (neither have children might I add), given that a cousin is going with her 5 month old.

My DH will of course be going, but AIBU not to want to go?
