That Was Fun

That was fun....

 

We have now said goodbye to our beloved Cambodia. Being there the last couple of weeks almost felt like we had never left. And then it was time to say goodbye again. She will be dearly missed.

 

Our flight to Guangzhou was uneventful, except for the two littles wanting to sit with no one but their daddy. Um, okay! I'll take the seat in front by myself.

 

The next flight to Hangzhou, however, was quite the scene. Just after the plane loaded we were informed of a delay. When we saw the carts pulled out and dinner being served before we had even taxied to the runway, we knew it was going to be a long night.

 

In swept the worst thunder and lightning storm I had ever seen. I was sure our plane was going to be taken up into the air by the wind alone!

 

We sat there for over two hours. This resulted in the whole plane up and walking around. And then the fun.

 

A full on, Chinese yelling match between several passengers and the flight attendants. It wasn't long before Mr. Powerful Breath beside me joined in on the fun. This screaming fest lasted for a good 20 minutes and included the passengers in the row in front of us, our own row, and that behind.

 

The louder the screaming, the louder everyone else's talking got.

 

After several "serenity nows" Darren and I stiffled our giggles as we hung our heads down low, mostly to protect ourselves from all of the horking happening around us.

 

Soon the plane was on its way to the runway, passengers still mingling about and heading into the washroom. Everyone managed to make it to their seats in time for us to take off. The storm made for some turbulance. This helped to rock two of my babies to sleep. Darren and Mattea.

 

Hudson chose to talk my ear off.

 

We arrived at our hotel after 10 and endured the excitement of a new room for another hour or so. Then off to sleep we went.

 

Two adults and two kids tucked tightly into two twin beds.

 

We are here Caleb. One day to go!
