Whew - we made it thru our first 4 hour flight. The Hong Kong airport was a great frustration. First, they couldn't find Ethan's lap seat ticket in the system. We must have had 4 different people coming over trying to work it out. They finally did something and after about 45 minutes at the checkin, we finally were checking our luggage. Then they told us that the kids needed a transit visa for Japan. We tried to get them to understand we were just doing a connecting flight to Chicago, but they seemed to think we were going to have problems getting them thru the gate. They finally told us to work with ground security upon arrival, so we dashed to McDonalds for an "on the run" breakfast, and was nearly late for the flight. The kiddos did pretty well on the flight, except Ella got sick after we landed (it was a bit rough). Hope the next flight is better.
Sitting at the airport waiting to board so thought I would send off a few photos from our day at the pearl market. We are almost home...oh, and we didn't need the transit visas - thanks Cathay Pacific for stressing me out, and taking up more of our time at checkin - all for nothing.
