Trip Home & Back in Shanghai with Tired Kids

Now we begin our trek back to China. There is no direct flight from Florida to China, so we had to fly back to Detroit, stay the night and fly back the next day. We chose just to stay at the Westin right at the airport. This was a good choice. We stepped off the plane, had a baggage person handle our luggage right to the hotel, which was right inside the airport, and then they transferred it to our room. This made things much less hectic than if we had stayed with family or friends.

God Bless Pelton for packing the stuff we left at her house into boxes and bringing it to us. We had dinner (just P and Kath for the last half) so it was nice to visit.

The Westin at Detroit Metro is really nice. Although pricey, it made our trip more convenient.

Our plane trip back was uneventful, except I thought I lost my new Red Ipod. I found it in Alex's backpack.

Kirk put together the Thomas table when we got back and Alex and Elizabeth LOVE to play with it.

We were pretty jet lagged for a week after we got back. The kids were passing out at dinner!
