We started the journey aboard a Hannibal school bus.



Waving goodbye to parents


Saint Louis, Missouri -- Lambert Airport


Shortly after take-off from St. Louis. Only two of our kids had ever flown before.


A few screams at take-off...


The butter seems to be frozen.


Detroit International Airport - chess time.


Riding the terminal train to our gate in Detroit, Michigan


Travelers work on their journals in Detroit


On board the 400-passenger Boeing 747 - time to cross the Pacific.


Eating, eating, eating...


Flying time to Kansai Airport, Osaka, Japan, about 12 hours.


In Osaka, Japan, we hopped a train to the wrong gate, had a slight panic, rushed back to our correct gate, 
and then our Boeing 747 airplane took this route to Taipei. About 2 and a half hours flying time.



A short clip of our arrival in Taipei...
