Okay, so our 24+ hours of travel was really more like automobile, plane, train, plane and automobile! :)
We had a very early flight to Chicago where we connected thru to Beijing. But first there was a 12 hour layover in Chicago! We hated to waste a perfectly good day so we rode the train into the city to visit the field museum. Sue the T Rex was a BIG hit!
I had hoped to meet up with an old friend but I couldn't message him since I couldn't get any free wi-fi at the museum and had left the phone at home. So that was a bit of a bummer.
Made it back to O'Hare in good time and the plane on schedule for the 13 hour flight to Beijing.
Wren is a great traveller and had agreed to cooperate and sleep the first half of the flight and watch movies the second half. This was important since our plane gets in at 11 pm China time and we'll need her to sleep again as we try to get used to the time change (they are 12 hours ahead so will only be 11 am back home).
