Saturday August 22nd

Saturday.

I think it’s saturday. We got to Shanghai airport earlier than expected and had arranged to meet Mike and Cheryl in one of the 2 bars on the ground floor of the terminal. I had sent Mike a plan of terminal 1of the airport prior to departure, there were only 2 wine glass symbols, what could go wrong?

A quick glance at the map on exiting the customs area and I soon realized we were in terminal 2. Sod it!

Making the best of a bad situation, we had a beer in the bar right outside international arrivals and waitede for their flight to land.

We hooked up without any problems and headed for the other terminal.

It is a bit odd looking for people you’ve only ever seen in photographs. But Mike was the only fella that came through looking like a man that could wear a skirt and get away with it (he’s a bagpiper).

After what seemed like a 3 mile walk, we made it to terminal 1.

Flight to Guangzhou was delayed by about an hour. Which was bad enough for us but M & C had been travelling 8 hours longer than us!

Bed, hard as a rock but a bed (thought of Tanner sleeping on apiece of wood).
