WHAT WOULD A SEAT LOOK LIKE IF OUR KNEES BENT THE OTHER WAY?
WEDNESDAY MORNING - Chicago, Illinois! Greetings from the "Windy City" where we landed at 2AM this morning (local time) after flying from Palm Springs to Dallas to here (on a canceled flight!). It was long day, but nothing like the day ahead of us. We're looking at 15 hours non-stop from here to Shanghai, China, but the good news is that we get little bags of peanuts and free Cokes! We'll land tomorrow around 2pm (local Chinese time) and go immediately to the nearest hospital to have new legs attached.
Today's flights weren't too bad (once we got on them!). The Palm Springs/Dallas leg was pretty much uneventful, but once we were in the Dallas airport the fun began. Did you know that the American Airlines employee store there (between gates 45 and 47) is open to the public? (NOT KIDDING!). Imagine what happened after we bought a tight fitting flight attendant's uniform (female) for Kevin. By the way, you all know that the Riding4Beer World Tour is sponsored by Budweiser and we bet they're real proud of how we're already spending their money (the uniform cost $149 + Texas state sales tax - Thanks Bud!). We figure the outfit will come in handy on the flight to Shanghai.
After our airport shopping it was off to Chicago and some fleabag hotel a mile from the runway. By the time we got off the plane, woke up a cokehead taxi driver and got to the hotel it was almost 3am. The night desk clerk was...ah....er....let's just say peculiar. We're just gonna describe him as the world's tallest midget and leave the rest to your imagination. The good news is that the pay-per-view porn in the room were some movies we haven't seen (more than 2 or 3 times) so we could save our Suduku books for the flight to Shanghai. Speaking of China, our next post will be from the land of Kung Pao chicken and we have a plane to catch...
They sold Kevin a flight attendant's (female) uniform! Of course our flight is the one canceled!
Stacy makes herself at home in Dallas for SIX HOURS! 2AM - Finally landing in Chicago!
Don't forget your chopsticks and if you see General Tzo, that chicken guy, tell him we said, "nice dish!" How are things going on the journey so far? We are thinking about you two silly bastards. You will represent the American people real well and we know you will make us proud. We know the Chinese will never want to visit the U.S. after this. Have a great time and remember we cannot help but love you.
guy and cary.

Your flight was cancelled because the Chinese government called the US Embassy to cancel your flight to delay you a bit. The President, HU Jintao, said, "holly s--t, Kevin & Stacy are coming!!!
