OK, want to hear about my exciting day at the Pudong Airport kids??? The day started with a 4.55 am alarm going off…and it just got better from there. 
Our flight has now been cancelled so after being at the airport from 6.30 am til 3.30 pm we were told to go to a hotel (2 hours away on a bus) with 300 other people…so we went home (45 minute taxi ride) and some friends went to the hotel and are keeping us in touch.
MAYBE we will get a call around 10 and then have to book a taxi and get to airport and try again for a possible 1.15 am flight…I can see your jaw dropping!
This means at best we will be waking Hannah at 10 (made her go to bed at 5 telling her it was 7…it worked!) and go out into the snow (it has snowed for a week now), get a taxi, get to the airpot, wait some more and hopefully fly through a blizzard into the Thailand sun arriving around 5 am (feeling fresh I am sure) and then try and get a connecting flight to Phuket!
Oh Happy Day!!!
15 days til we meet Mimi!!!

Poor you, Mrs. P. I hate to wait for hours and hours. I would’ve went crazy if I were you. It’s a cool thing that I just wrote about a post of me being stranded. See you on Wedsnday! A few more days till you see Mimi…wow.
