Making like a tree and leafing...



I was blogging offline during our 15 hour flight and completely forgot to upload...
  • 3:05pm CST on 1/9/13, somewhere over Minnesota: 

    • It's official... we're Manila bound! All 18 of us made it to O'Hare International Airport with our outrageously heavy suitcases in tow. My backpack felt more like a small toddler at 9 kilograms. Several moms and dads and others stuck with us until it was time to move our way to the security gate. We had to have taken 1000 pics before we left. Some shed some tears...which was so adorable. On the other end of the spectrum is Patrick (my husband) who opted for the curbside drop off. Hahaha. I know its early, but all signs say that we are a pretty rambunctious group. Laughing our heads off over a McDonald's lunch, sharing fries and friending each other on Facebook.
  • 5:02pm CST on 1/9/13, somewhere over western Canada:


    • Just finished a salmon dinner and it was good!! Jordyn (my seatmate) and I were pretty impressed. Only 12 hours and 29 minutes til we land in Hong Kong.





  • 6:00am CST on 1/10/13:
    • 3 movies, some ipod time, and a little bit of sleep and we have finally made it to Hong Kong!!! Got ourselves something to drink. $27!!! Hong Kong dollars of course. Taking off for Manila in about an hour.
Some pics of our adventure so far:


O'Hare International Airport, Chicago, IL

Lack of space underneath our airplane seats...hardly enough room for my legs and Jordyn's
