Well, we got of to an early start on Wednesday morning.  We awoke at 3:30am and arrived in Tokyo at 2:30am CSCT.  After a slight mishap (aka shopping instead of paying attention to the local time...) we wound up missing out connection to Beijing!  arrrgggg!  Fortunately, there was a Delta flight out in three more hours, and we were kindly booked on it.  Yet, here we sit, after boarding and de-boarding the Delta 747 due to some technical issue.  We get to wait another hour to depart and expect to arrive in Beijing after midnight their time (about 30 hours one way).  Needless to say we are little slap happy/sad, but we persevere.



Us leaving Chicago (over 20 hrs ago!)


One of the reasons we missed our first flight to Beijing...


Another reason....



We are very thankful that we all have good attitudes and are not towing a 2 year for this part.  Perhaps we have learned a lesson in international travel...
