Jacob and Abey getting ready for a long trip to Bangkok...again we are in the upper deck.
We are up early to finish packing and head to the Sydney Airport. Leg 1 of our trip - Australia has come to an end. Need to pull out the bucket list and place a check mark...
The Westin in Sydney is very nice, heavenly beds make you melt when you get in. Breakfast in the Concierge Lounge, then we are going downstairs to look for our "MaxiTaxi". A MaxiTaxi is a taxi big enough for all our luggage and family, however it was smaller than our Minivan back home. It was a tight squeeze but we got everything loaded up and off to the airport.
Today itinerary takes us to Hong Kong via Bangkok, Thailand. If you want to track us on our flight here are the links below:

It will take about 10 hrs to get to Bangkok and another 3 hrs to get to Hong Kong. We land in around 10:30 pm local time. We are in the airport getting ready to board our flight to China.
Kids in the Bangkok airport getting ready to board the plane to Hong Kong.
Jacob's first flight on a A330-300...he was excited but had lots of questions.
We have arrived in Hong Kong, China safe and sound. We checked into our rooms around midnight.
The cab ride from the Hong Kong Airport was quick but the cab was funny. It was a regular car (for China) with our bags strapped in for dear life...everything made it to the hotel in one piece.
Kids are already sleeping and I am just finishing updating the blog before I pack it in for the night.
