Hello from Tokyo - Also from Saturday evening!

[etakyma]

On my way home from Taipei, Taiwan and I fly through Tokyo/Narita - which is where I am right now. So I am in the United lounge (thanks K for getting me in!) and using the free wifi. The snacky bits are also way better than airplane food, so I've eaten a bit since I am about to board a twelve-plus hour flight.

Tie-Dye Friday came off swimmingly - I think we'll do it again in Paris.

I am coming home with the same cough I left home with - which is incredibly annoying. On the plus side one of the elderly Taiwanese men who worked janitorial at the convention center gave me cough medicine - he spoke no English, and I spoke no Mandarin, and yet...

The sun rose as we left the hotel this morning (Saturday). It is setting over Tokyo now, and it will rise and nearly set again, also Saturday before I land in New Jersey for my final layover before my final flight to Boston.

I have a couple of really loud talkers near me - which is incredibly annoying. They are four tables away, and yet it is like they are talking directly at me...

Random thoughts are random... so I think I will sign off... from Tokyo/Narita, Japan.

...I can't wait to get home!
