I can't believe how quickly our travel day came & surprisingly I was organized, packed & ready when the car service picked us up at 10am.Our flight from JFK to Chicago wasn't till 2:45 but you never know with Long Island between construction accidents or just plain traffic I wasn't leaving anything to chance. We were in the airport before 11am breezed thru security & went to our gate to wait. A few of Andrew's coworkers popped over to shoot the breeze with him and before we new it we were on the plane to Chicago. We had a three hour layover, grabbed a Starbucks & settled in for the flight. Our flight took off at 7:55 (Chicago time) after a few movies, some pretty good food, a glass of champagne, some baileys on the rocks I fell asleep for a good part of the flight(as did Andrew). We landed abit after midnight found our guide, drove to the hotel and were in bed for 2am. We were out touring at 8:30am with 4 other families. First up was Tian An Men Square, the Forbidden City Follow by a really good lunch & a tour of Jade factory. Finally we were off to the Great Wall. Tomorrow We travel to Xi"An and it"s Aislinn Day!
