From the heart, through the Aorta to the arteries. Pass through several branches and the Capillaries appear. Blood leaves these, and the circulation combines to form the venous flow that re-enters the heart via the Vena cava.

The order of blood flow (I assume for the sake of discussion that you are referring to the human body) is a question about the circulatory system. The circulatory system can be compared in an oversimplified way, to a lazy river at a swim park. The basis for the comparison is that it is an unending circle that continues indefinitely. (The wave pool being turned off would be comparable to a person dying)

I learn well visually so I am including a link to a site that I found using Google search:

You could start anywhere in the body. If you start at the heart, newly oxygenated red blood cells, along with the many other components of blood are pushed out of the heart. The blood then flow through major arteries (similar to an interstatehighway.) Then blood flows into smaller vessels heading toward different organs, such as those roads that lead to different subdivisions within a community. Finally, the blood will head into every remote area of the body by way of smaller blood vessels until capillaries are reached. Continuing with the road analogy, smaller roads are found within a subdivision, and finally when a home is reached, the hallways in the home resemble capillaries.

The whole process is reversed starting in the other direction with deoxygenated blood.

The heart is divided into four chambers, two in the left side of the heart and two in the right side. These chambers are called the left atrium, the right atrium, the left ventricle, and the right ventricle. The left atrium and left ventricle pump blood to the body whereas the right atrium and ventricle pump blood to the lungs. Deoxygenated blood (blood with less oxygen in it because the body's cells have already taken oxygen from it) enter the heart through two large veins called the superior vena cava and inferior vena cava. These two veins enter into the right atrium. The right atrium pumps this blood into the right ventricle, which then pumps it into the lungs via the pulmonary artery. This blood picks up oxygen and gets rid of carbon dioxide in the lungs when you breathe in and out. This newly oxygenated blood returns to the heart via the pulmonary veins, which enter the left atrium. The left atrium then pumps the blood into the left ventricle, which pumps it out to the entire body via the aorta. Keep in mind that these things are all happening spontaneously in your body.

Blood is pumped from the heart (left ventricle) to the rest of the body (aorta) by way of arteries which get smaller and smaller until they reach capillary beds.

Then off the capillary bed small veins become larger and larger veins (inferior and superior vena cava) and finally lead to the heart (right ventricle).

From there the blood is pumped to the lungs by the pulmonary arteries and back to the heart by pulmonary veins where it all starts over again.
