Hong Kong at last.

Hi everyone. Just wanted to let you know that we finally made it to China. We left New Phila Thursday morning at 6:00am and got to China Saturday morning at 1:00am. It was quite the experience. Our flight out of Cleveland was delayed because of our flight coming from Chicago. We left Cleveland one and a half hour late which put us in Chicago at 12:15 pm. Our flight from Chicago to Hong Kong was supposed to leave at 12:18pm. Well, you can probably bet that we did miss our flight. They had just closed the door right after we had ran right up to the gate. Needless to say we had real high anxiety. United Airlines got us on another flight leaving about two hours later, however it was heading to Tokyo, Japan. We took that twelve hour flight and then waited in Tokyo for about two hours before getting on another plane for a four hour flight to Hong Kong. Well, twenty eight hours later of airports and airplanes we made it. Our luggage was even here when we arrived. Yeah. We are touring today with our group, so we may try to post again later. We miss everyone. Love ya, Bob and Lisa

What a wild start! You will be able to laugh about it a LONG time from now! I'm just glad you made it safe and sound. I'm praying for you all, take a deep breath, and have a wonderful day! Hey, at least now you can say that you have been to Japan!
