Trip

Been up since 1:30am local Osaka time...after about 4 hours of sleep (not in a row either). Got about 2 hours before I leave hotel for Itami airport and beginning of my long trip home. Cannot wait.

Here's the itinerary:

5:30AM taxi to Itami airport

6:30AM check in at ANA, then find the Starbucks (which I hate) or something (but I can at least ID what they have)

7:50AM flight from Itami to Narita

9:00AM arrive Narita and cruise (hopefully) through immigration

11:00AM flight from Narita to Dulles, should take approx. 11 hours

10:30AM Go back in time and land in DC, go through US Customs, then find something good to eat

12:40PM flight from Dulles to EWR, get my bag and get on the road (aka the GSP)

After that I will pick up my aunt since we have the following events on Thursday afternoon:

OSSS' HS Baseball team is in 2d round of State Playoffs at 4PM

YSSS' MS Baseball team has last regular season game of season (MS playoffs start next week)

After the games are done we have:

OSSS is installed into the National Honor Society in a ceremony

YSSS has freshman orientation at his HS

So busy SoulSlam will be. And I wouldn't trade for anything. Tired, yes, but this stuff is what makes my life special. One lucky guy.

PS - Justin the Poolguy supposed to be replacing my liner Thursday as well - Hope so. I'm more anxious about that.
