- 11 pieces of checked-in luggage (all pieces made it)
- 3 different planes
- 3 different countries (USA, South Korea, China)
- 15 hours of actual flying time
- 26 hours door-to-door travel time
- 0 "are we there yet"
- 47,348 questions from the kids about stuff they saw along the way
Overall the trip went fine and we are glad we got it under our belt (the kid's excitement of being in a plane has worn off). Due to swine flu concerns we had to fill out health forms and have our temperature taken before entering the terminals in South Korea and Dalian. In Dalian before we could leave the plane two people in full bunny suits and masks entered the plane and took every one's temperature before anyone could get off.
We stayed in a hotel for two nights and on Monday we moved into our new place in Campus Village. It is great to finally be "home" and start to unpack and get settled in. The girls are really enjoying having their own rooms (Emma even made her bed today).
Today we took the girls to the local beach (5 minutes away) and they played in the water, collected sea shells, and enjoyed a beautiful Dalian day.
We will post some pictures as we get settled in and share some of our adventures.
