Trying to leave Minnesota in a snow storm is never wise...because you end up sitting in the plane for five hours without even leaving the ground! Yes it's true. Pat and I didn't leave Minneapolis until 6pm. I barely got any sleep. Of course we missed not only our connecting flight but the flight after that. NWA put us up for the night in a hotel, I was up until midnight rebooking flights, etc
Japan Air Lines is the way to fly. New planes, lotsa leg room, and everyone gets their own tv screen. The other families will be in tomorrow afternoon. I'm exhausted and after supper and hitting the hay.
I forgot to pack a picture of Emily; can anyone email me one that I email you to profpayeeofmn@yahoo.com? It's really hard without her. Seeing little kids makes me miss her more.
OH so we finally get into Changsha a couple hours ago and there's no one there to take us to the hotel. Everyone smokes (if half the people of China quick smoking, I think their polution problem might be licked). We're looking for our ride and are about to take a taxi 40 minutes when we see a guy running with a sign so Pat follows him. Thanks to him, we found our driver!! She had just found out about our flight changes.
Emily, if you're reading this, I love and miss you. What a lucky little girl Cassidy will be to have you for a big sister.
More later; I gotta get some sleep
