It's a sign! JAL is starting a direct Boston-Tokyo route next Spring! :) Empty wallet, here I come.

Hope you guys all had a wonderful holiday today, whether or not your big celebrators of Christmas. It's a day off, you get lots of presents, catch music plays all the time, and hey people actually make an effort to be nice and/or polite ( Read more... )

Another long flight tomorrow morning. Goodbye incoming cold weather to Boston. Hello warm weather in Hong Kong and Taiwan! Shopping, eating and then some shopping and more eating.

I really have to get packing. I have a feeling work will be a late night on Monday, which means I have to get this done tomorrow since I leave early Tuesday morning ( Read more... )

Looking at tickets to Hong Kong, and of course out of curiosity I had to search tickets to Japan. Damn, some good deals to and from Tokyo. (=_=) I will try to ignore that, I will try to ignore that...look away, look away. Don't think about a trip to Japan, no matter how tempting. Not until 2010.

Off the to the Pacific Northwest (Seattle and Vancouver) for a few days after work tomorrow. Supposed to rain part of the time. *sigh* (=_=)

I will miss my dear kitties (;_;) as usual - stay well, little ones.

Off to Kinugawa today. Another 2 hr train trip - I splurged to by the spacia tickets rather than the economy local train from Asakusa. I hope there's more to do there other than the ryokan and onsen. Not that I would complain, but it's been so warm in Tokyo that I want to see some momiji! I know it's early, but Nikko and Kinugawa should be ( Read more... )

I'm awake but not fully alert...I can tell my mind will be dull today. :p Glad to be here and not cramped in a fetal position on a 15hr flight, though I will say Japan Airlines is such a big step up compared to the US carriers I've taken in the past ( Read more... )
