Today we started with getting our boarding passes and checking out luggage at 3:00. We were then able to hang out with our friends at the meet up place until everyone was finished – it was good to have all that time to say good bye because of the huge line to check our luggage. Then we took a picture showing everybody in the exchange: it felt like the paparazzi with all the camera flashes! After a little down time, we boarded the plane and began our 8 hour flight! There was a wide variety of options we could do to pass the time, like complimentary movies, tv shows, games, and a flight tracker to see how far we are! The dinner was excellent: it was ravioli or chicken ratatouille. It’s getting pretty dark out so they turned off the lights and gave us pillows, blankets, and eye masks with earbuds! Good night!
