TA (Travel Approval)!!
We have officially bought our plane tickets!!
Traveling on July 4 @ 12:05 PM from Chicago and arriving in Beijing at 2:40 PM July 5. Sometimes we say, "Where did that day go?" In looking at that schedule, we will wonder very literally, "Where did that day go?"
Leaving Shanghai @ 3:55 PM July 18 & arriving in Chicago @ 4:33 PM July 18.....that will be the longest 38 minutes ever!
We won't know all the blanks in between until a week before the trip. Time to get excited!
