Date still holding

Just a quick little blog because I feel like it :) The date of leaving May 21 is still holding. No word of a change yet. The flights have been booked. We leave Ottawa Friday morning at 6am (yikes!) to catch our connecting flight to Hong Kong at 9:30am. We arrive in Hong Kong at 1pm on Sat then leave for Hanoi about 4 hours later. We hope we'll be able to change the flight back, both because it means 3.5 weeks in Vietnam if not (we're hoping things will move a bit more quickly once there) and because it is a red eye flight that leaves Hong Kong at 2:30am and arrives in Toronto at 5:30 am lol.

So if all goes well and there are no changes, we'll be jetting towards our little man this time next Friday...woohoo!!!!

  3. Hey Meg,
    If you are going the citizenship route, you will likely be done much quicker. We were in Vietnam 18 days and could have come home a few days sooner, except that we wanted to go to Halong Bay. Our travel mates came home in 15 days. And it didn't cost a cent to change our flights... Molly's "ticket" cost $50. We were in the same boat... Danny had to get back to work too!
    I am so excited to follow your journey.
