Well after a 10 minute car ride to Shanghai Pudong International airport we had a 14 hour flight ahead of us. Poor Luna was stuck in her carrier the whole time, but didn't seem as traumatized as we thought (check out her page under 'About Us' to hear more about that). Dad and I didn't sleep much, while I'm pretty sure that Ri fell asleep while watching a movie. We had 5 check-in suitcases, 4 smaller carry-ons and each of us had a backpack to carry, on top of all that there was Luna. We made it to Newark Airport with Grammy waiting for us to take us on another hour car ride. It was so nice to have a nice hot meal waiting for us and a comfortable bed waiting upstairs. All of us are currently battling jet-lag, being a 12 hour time difference between Shanghai and New Jersey. Summer has officially started!

-sounds very familiar. I thought we were the only ones who traveled with 5 check-ins, and 1-2 carry ons per person for a grand total of 10 bags! :)
