Side trip to Detroit!

A cool fountain in the Detroit airport. Nice airport.
Dumping fuel so we could land in Detroit.

Hello from Tokyo!
Well, Delta has been the great airline that we all know and love.  Mid flight today we get an announcement saying that one of the two air-conditioning units has gone out and we have to land in Detroit and get another plane.  Of course that little side trip and having to wait for the third pilot to get there caused us to sit in the Detroit airport for several hours.  You know wha'ts coming......  missed our flight from Tokyo to Shanghai.  So here we are spending the night in a Radisson hotel (compliments of Delta) and having a late dinner (also compliments of Delta) and leaving tomorrow for Shanghai and the completion of the first leg of our trip.  Traveling is an adventure! -Patti
