It was almost time for us to leave for the airport after dinner, but we honestly had no idea how we were going to stay up until 1:15 am when our flight takes off! We have to go to the airport to get our passports checked.

Arrive at SFO

We are scanning our passports to get checked in to get our boarding passes. The girls’ passports are expiring in a few months so we couldn’t check them in online the day before.

On our way to security

That’s us pointing to our gate.

On our way to the gate using the moving walkway aka travolator aka moving pavement aka travelator aka people mover.

We had the whole area to ourselves for awhile and so we waited…

…and waited…

…and waited…

…and waited.

On the jetway!

Supper on the Flight

Our very first meal on our Singapore Airlines flight was okay.

Snack on the Flight

No photo of the snacks. Most people were sleeping. The flight attendant offered me a red apple but I didn’t want it.

Breakfast on the Flight

Some yummy breakfast on the plane. I think we all got the same thing except my mom got tea.

Arrive at HKG

WE HAVE ARRIVED!!! After 14+ hours!
