MONDAY
Most of us have been waiting for this trip to finally arrive. Some students had been waiting a couple of years for this date, while I anxiously waited since December. Here we are with the students and parents saying goodbye at Bradley Airport at 9 a.m.
Looking good in CIBA red.

Waiting for our 12:00 flight to DetroitNeedless to say, we landed in Detroit without incident. It was a smooth flight and we were able to relax a bit until we had to board the plane for our 13 hour flight to Japan.

7 hours into the flight and mostly everyone still looking chipper.

Mr. Liu already barking orders
The students were troopers during this long flight. They were in good spirits and were very excited to be in China despite the long hours spent traveling.
