Start of a new adventure!

Okay, so we just lost our first attempt at blogging, yeah mom it's Emily.  Well, here we go again, round two.  We started out the day with a very successful trip driving to Edmonton to catch our first flight where we reluctantly said farewell to Jonny, we'll miss you man!!  After boarding the plane we sat...and sat... just cuz they found a small dint in the plane, yeah it was fine.  And a few people were late, silly people ;)  It didn't bother us too much because of our large lay-over waiting for us in Vancouver.  It was a smooth ride and freakin awesome man!!!!  I love planes!!!  My first time!!  Woot woot!!!  So at 12:15 at night, we have been here for about nine hours and we've been delayed again, oh woe is us! jk ;)  Our flight now leaves at 8 in the morning and we may get to even sleep on these nice comfy chairs :) They're padded!  Throughout this time in the airport we got lots of great team bonding time playing cards and slaps, I mean playing the card game slaps.  We also got lots of window shopping and some buying... ya know, that food stuff gets important.  But it has been a lot of fun, so to sum up what's going on; we had an awesome day, good flight to Vancouver, lots of fun on the moving sidewalk things.  (They're like flat escalators Hannah).  And we are sooo ready for bed.


Please pray for a good nights sleep, that our flight leaves on time, and we make our connecting flight to Ulanbataar.

With lots of love and blessings,
Emily and Melanie

P.S.  We get home on the 26th really late, in Edmonton at 10:30 at night.  Flight 248, Air Canada.  There ya go mom :)

  2. Emily! That's so funny (in an ironic type of way) that you would be delayed. Remember when I told you about my first trip on a plane was delayed? Silly little problem of the engine not starting, who needs that right? ;) Love ya my freaky darling, glad to hear you guys made it alright.

    God Bless you guys,
    Have fun having your world rocked!
