Terrible Traveling Experience

Well we finally made it back home and we are SICK and TIRED of flying. We arrived at the San Francisco airport and made our way to the next gate for our connecting flight, which was changed THREE times. Then our flight ended up being delayed for a total of EIGHT hours because of maintenance problems and legal problems with part of the crew. We finally board the airplane and end up waiting another 30 minutes for more maintenance problems. Then during our flight we were able to watch only one movie and then the system breaks down. We were only one hour into the 10 hour flight!
We arrived at our desintation around midnight and had to stay in a hotel in Osaka(paid by the airlines thank goodness) only to wake up and catch our final flight home in about 3-4 hours. We had about two hours of sleep because Isabella was a bit fussy from the long delay at the airport and from the the flight and the time adjustment; poor baby girl.

FINALLY we are back home safe. Yay!
It's great to be home but of course we still miss everyone in the states. We had a great visit with family. We will update with pictures of our trip soon. Right now we just want to relax!

Are you going to be in UT for good? Or just for Christmas?

So glad you made it back okay! It's such a pain to swap planes with babies! Anyway, wish we had more time to visit. I totally realized (after the fact)that you didn't even get to meet Jon and I didn't even get to hold Isabella! It was so crazy that night @ the temple and Noah was not in a good mood either. I think it was just too cold for him! Hope we can see you again...sooner, rather than later!!
