The Golden Ticket...

This is a scan of our Travel Approval (TA). We received two copies of this document, it is on very fancy paper and has a raised seal. We have to take both copies with us to China, and don't get to keep one.


Tina booked our tickets yesterday. We will fly out of Seattle at 5:00 PM on Wednesday, September 14th. We will take Alaska Air to Los Angeles, then China Southern to Guangzhou, and then finally to Beijing, where we will arrive at 11:00 AM Friday, September 16. The time zone difference from here to there is 15 hours, but this still means our travel time is 27 hours. I hope that Ben's not reading this or we're going to have a problem getting him on the plane!
