hi guys! here's my trip experience last friday..my flight was at 7:45am and i was at the airport around 3:30am...there was a long line at the entrance coz when i got there they have only opened 1 entrance door. then i went through xray, i pity myself because nobody helped me put my luggages on the xray machine! :crying: really heavy and i just had an operation so it felt like my tummy was gonna fall! lol! anyways, after xray i wet on the travel tax line and after that to the check in counter was so lucky there weren't that many people there. the girl there asked me if i had any sharp objects or commercial stuff in my luggage just say no to everything! lol! then i proceeded to the check in counter had my bags weighed. she asked me for the address where im staying here in the US and after that gave me my gate pass. it was still too early i finished everything in just 30 minutes so i went to the exit and meet my family outside i still stayed outside for like an hour and a half everything was smooth till the time i said i need to get back in everybody started to cry! lol :crying: was sad to leave everyone but my husband has been waiting for me here forever! lol

anyways, my flight to narita, japan took 4 hours. was smooth. be sure to bring loose dollars with u coz if u try to pay for food at the narita airport on a $100 bill they will give ur change in yen! lol i stayed in narita for like 4 hours and flew from there to SFO for 9 hours!!! thats the longest stretch! try to stand up and walk around to help exercise ur feet..in my case i tried to sleep all the way but i couldn't. thay also show some good movies so i got intertained..

when we reached SFO my husband told me to run for the exit right away coz i dont want to be stuck in the immigration line for i still have to catch a plane to palm springs in my stop over is only 2 hours! lol! i fall in line with the new immigrants section! lol! when it was my turn i noticed the last name of the immigration officer was isidro so definitely a Filipina! lol! she told me im not supposed to be in that line! hahahahaha :devil: but then she still processed my papers got my address so they can mail me the letter later on.she didnt asked me anything besides my address! :whistle: she stamped my passport and i went to pick up my luggage run to my gate for my last flight home!

i called my husband and he was on his way to palm springs airport to pick me up! gosh! was getting excited!!

my flight to Palm Springs took only a hour and damn! i finally got out of the aiport! the sun was on its peak! damn! the tempreture when i got here was 109F gosh!!!!!!

my husband was waiting for me at the baggage pick up area! gosh! all the worries went to the drain! im finally home with my husband!

thank u everyone for praying for me! im here safe and sound! and gosh! i didnt get to meet anyone during the trip! lol! but it was a really smooth one!! :star:
