So it may be better to fly from the East coast to the West Coast on then on to GZ? I will be traveling to GZ with 3 children and a friend and home with 4 children and my friend. My boys are older and very good travelers. My 3 year old did well on the flight home from China last year but she may have been "shell" shocked. I have no idea how our new daughter will do.
Tomorrow will be my day to sort this out and start applying for the cards.
Thank you to everyone for your advice!!
