the journey home

we started out early at 5 am to the guangzhou airport for our first flight. We had the wrong forms from our guide so had to redo some forms. made in on in plenty of time then we had a delay of an hour due to the heavy air traffic. the sky was a beautiful blue and once up the 4 hr flight was great. In tokyo we asked to be put together but we told the flight was full. when we went to board my ticket came thru as not found but luckily it was just that they had moved my seat so we did sit together. that flight also was pretty smooth and only had slight turbulance. we arrived in detroit a little early around 1 pm but it took forever to get thru security. Zoe had to have her forms processed ,then our luggage went thru 3 different checks we were even set to the agriculture check point ????? not sure way. Zoe has been saying "neow neow" meaning she needed to go the bathroom at the first line poor girl. We found our next gate and of course it was the farthest possible from where were. there was a symbol next to it so I thought it was already boarding. We rushed the whole length of the airport and every time we passed a restroom she would start yelling again. we made it and the plane was still being serviced. that symbol??? it meant to take the monorail..LOL We made it to rochester at 4:30 pm and were greeted by Desmond and Shari who had come straight from the hospital to pick us up. more later Bonnie
