If we are starting in the legs, the path is as follows:
From the legs, the red blood cell will move through the arteries, then through capillaries, and then return through the veins. The Deoxygenated blood (blood without oxygen) will then return to the heart where it will enter through the vena cava into the right atrium of the heart.
Hope this helps.
