Day 1 Monday October 21

We are now in China!

After a 13 1/2 hour flight from Toronto, we have settled into life in a country of 1.3 billion people, you get a sense of the size of the place at the airport.  One terminal is 3 times the size of our Terminal in Toronto and they have 4 terminals.  There were airlines from every country in the world, including an Airbus A380-800 from Emerates. 

I will go into some details on on polar route flight later, but I ran my  GPS app on my iPhone and we got to 87degrees North, and an altitude of 35,000ft.

There appears to be a "carridor" across Russia starting on the Artic Ocean and terminating on there boarder with China.

More to follow..
