Well, we traveled for 26 hours straight and it was no fun at all. Up at 4:30 am to catch a 6:00 am bus to the airport then to an 8:25 am flight from Guangzhou to Hong Kong. All was smooth until we were on our 11:44 am flight from Hong Kong to San Fran - on the runway and then, "Excuse me folks, this is your captain speaking..." Oy. Mechanical difficulties left us on the runway for 2.5 hours with almost no air flow (except in first class - how do they do that?) Finally, we took off for a mere 11.5 hour flight. Jemma was an ace the entire time - hardly a peep out of her, but definitely a poop... or two. We sat next to the nicest businessman (he makes the plastic pumpkins you see everywhere) and right off the bat he said to Jemma, "I can tell we're gonna be good friends." What a relief. We're gonna carve that man's face in our pumpkins this year.
