Day 1-2 Flight to Japan
Terminal D? Terminal E? Who knows?! It was a good omen of things to come (and those sorts of things are important in Japan) that everyone was at the airport and checked in by 9:15. The Flight was on time and 13.5 hours later we were in Tokyo...or so we thought. We stood in three lines before getting our bags then waited twice for bathroom breaks before loading the Joyful Bus #168 to the city of Tokyo. But beware—better get to know your bus driver’s face quickly—because there are many Joyful Bus #168s in Tokyo. When something is good luck or fortune for you, keep going to the well!
There were lots of movies to pass the time on the way over, but one student asked, “Now what do we watch on the way back??!”
Dinner tonight was fried chicken with sticky rice, soup, salad, and grapefruit for dessert. Each family in Japan takes pride in his/her family recipe. We got our bearings, grabbed a drink from one of the multiple vending machines in the hotel and on the street, and called it a night.
