It was an early start for the trip. The alarm went off at 6.00. I was awake between 4 and 4.30, and it had been a late night as it was boys night last night, and then finish packing… but i got up, dressed, and called an uber which arrived about 3 minutes later. Off to the airport.<\/p>\n
It was a quick check in, aided by the fact i was using more points and flying business class again😆. Once through i went straight to the lounge for some breakfast.<\/p>\n
We got called for the plane but a minute later they retracted the call. An issue the engineers were looking at and would need another 40 minutes. Take your time guys! I don’t want to leave if it’s not all 100%. Eventually we took off about an hour late – just after 10.30.<\/p>\n
I watched a few movies and slept a little bit on the flight (and consumed a bevvie or two) and before i knew it we were landing. Immigration was painless and my bags were ready by the time i had walked from our gate to the main terminal building. So i bought my bus ticket and waited 45 minutes.<\/p>\n
The bus ride was just under 2 hours. I did some work on the bus so it went pretty quick. At Futako tamagawa station i got in a taxi which took me the rest of the way to Mio’s house. Yoichi had just gotten home and Kaoru was there. Mio was picking Arisa up from school (it’s about 9.30 by now mind you). We had a few drinks and eventually went to bed.<\/p>\n
