The Marathon Journey Home

We left our HK hotel around 6:20 am
on a shuttle to the airport.
We were due to fly out @ 9:15 but...
it was delayed until noon.
Here we are hanging out at the gate.
EK could not WAIT to get on that plane to her sisters!!!
At one point, I looked over
and Jing had climbed up beside EK
and they were watching Mulan.
I told Scott that had been my dream all along~
friends and sisters forever!!!
Jing's new friend Claire~
just a teeny tiny doll. :)
Rebecca and Mark...
we are already miss you all tons!
Hanging out before the marathon
15 hour flight to Detroit~
where our layover was cut in half on the front side.
Sweetness!
Boarded and ready for the flight~
or ready as we were ever going to be.
The girls did amazing!!!
They watched movies, played, ate and ate and ate~
EK took a good five hour sleep
and Jing catnapped-
Scott and I got no sleep but made it!
We landed and made it through imigration
and customs in a fast time of 2 hours (sarcasim)~
but OH so thankful our little Jing
was declared a US Citizen once her feet hit Detroit!
Enjoyed a two hour layover before our small
Delta Connection flight took us to our family and friends
waiting @ Greenville/Spartanburg airport.
OH such a sweet homecoming~ post coming!
