good luck with everything :)

is the passport going to be ready in time? i know they used to say 60 days though they would come a little sooner of course. but they always said 60 days just in case... just fyi.

[para_chan214]

yes, believe me, i know. we paid through the nose to have a Rush put on it. should be about 10 days. *laughs* in fact, the woman who waited on me gave me a worried look and said "you know you gotta put a ten-day rush on this, don't you, sweetie?" and i said yes, all embarrassed. *sheepish*

ah ok... and yeah it costs a lot to have it rushed. but better than waiting on your hands wondering if it gets there in time! :) cool beans...

yeah... the back-up plan had been (if we hadn't gotten the concert tickets) to go ahead and order the passport anyway as usual, and go to Japan in the spring. plenty of time, then! but no, we got concert tickets. *bounces*

... you're taking pictures, if they let you right? and since it's textiles, I'm not expecting pictures so you're getting postcards, right? ;p

[para_chan214]

um... there probably will be postcards; the textiles are all on dolls. worse comes to worst, i will spend a bit of my little amount of money and buy one of their books, either the one on Genji or the historical costumes one. so yes, there will be pictures, either taken by us, postcards, or a book. *huggles*
