The three of us arrived in Milwaukee last about 11 pm. It was a grueling journey with a little boy who was sometimes happy as a clam and sometimes a terrified little boy. Our trip home started by leaving the hotel at 6:50 am for our 9:25 am flight from Guangzhou (Gong Joe) to Beijing. Our agency representative helped us get on the flight (there's another story in that, but we made it fine). Then in Beijing, we waited for the afternoon until it was time to board the flight to Chicago. (There's a story in that to). Then a long wait in Chicago, and flight to Milwaukee.
Let's add it up:
Guangzhou to Beijing - 2 hr, 55 min flight
Beijing - 5 hour wait
Beijing to Chicago - 12 hr, 47 min flight
Wait in Chicago (including customs processing) - over 5 hours
Chicago to Milwaukee - 49 min
Total - 27 hours.
Now the flight from Beijing home was a good 45 min late taking off and the flight to Milwaukee was late taking off, but this is pretty accurate. So, Gary Z, if your reading this, dont look for us in Church on Sunday.
Pics to follow soon.
