Well we are sitting in Tokyo. I hated the 12 hour flight as much as Jenny did, however I did not get sick, which is great for me. It was so crowded and I felt the guy in front of me was in my lap. They advertised on their TVs that every seat has its own tv screen, but our flight did not. I watched all the movies and my neck will never be the same again. Ryan slept a few hours, I got less than one hour sleep.
We are now delayed in Tokyo, which we don't think is so bad. Our flight will now get in at 1am in Manila and then our next flight leaves at 8am. This will break up our airport sitting a bit. We are just hanging out watching planes and now surfing the web. It's hard to believe we left Japan 11 years ago this month. It was fun to walk into the airport and see so much that is familiar. We will buy some goodies for the kids when we come back through (that's you boys). Well, just wanted everyone to know we are safe and sound and feel at home here. We are excited to go to Puerto tomorrow, I hope I don't sleep through the trip:) Forgive me if anything is spelled wrong or the grammar is bad, I'm not usually up for 24 hours straight.

The worst of your trips is over. At least on the way home for that 12 hour flight, you can use it to get to know your daughter a little more. You guys all make it sound so awful. Can't wait!
Glad you made it through the 12 hour flight as it was the worst for us. Will you guys be able to get any sleep in the airports? Hope you have a fan for the Manila airport. We were sweating while waiting for our flight to board. We heard others complaining about it too, so it wasn't just us. :)
Eric and I would love to be with you guys right now! We often talk about how nice it would be to visit Japan again, but it is just too expensive. We hope you get some sleep before you meet your daughter!
glad to hear you're in Tokyo, and that much closer to Puerto!
You guys are almost there!!! I hope that you do manage to get some sleep so that you can fully enjoy every single second once you reach Puerto. Keep posting!!
You're so close now!! At least you only have 7 hours to wait at the airport in Manila. Lets hope you manage to catch up on some sleep ... somewhere, and soon ...so excited for you ...
Julie & Ryan,
First off, congratulations on getting your official invitation (even though you were going anyway). And secondly, thanks for the update. You know you have many people reading your blog and interested in your progress. We have been waiting a long time for this! Of course, our wait has not been like yours, but still ... we are excited for you. I hope your travels continue to be safe and that you are with your daughter soon. Much love! ~Amy
