On the road again

[bookaddict43]

Well here we are sitting in the Yahoo cafe at Tokyo airport. Is it sad that I actually knew both where it was and how to find it? As usual I can:t find half the punctuation marks on the Japanese keyboard, so forgive the typing weirdness.

Anyway, we had an uneventful flight up from Cairns and reached the hotel just in time for the little guy to have a swim before bed. I forgot that even though the pool and gym are at the hotel I:d have to pay for their use, so that was a bit of a blow to my slight stopover budget. Otherwise we had a lovely stay and sleep-in and took a bus ride around the town near the airport. The scenery is much prettier this time around, with all the cherry blossom trees out in bloom and lots of flowers. The little guy is impressed with his first (remembered) visit to Japan and wants to come back for longer next time.

The next leg of the flight is 12 hours to Chicago and then it:s only a little way (relatively) to squish 67s!!! Yay! Hopefully we shall sleep on the plane and arrive with smiles on our faces...

Well, it's nearly 4:30 and I'm heading out. I'll do some shopping along the way, but I hope to see you around 9:30! (I really hope the rain doesn't delay your flight, but just call if it does.)

:D

Just so you know...I'm incredibly jealous of your layover. Wow.
