After a plane ride, a layover, another plane ride, a monorail and train ride, I'm back.My butt hurts from sitting ALL DAY long. The weather was quite warm (about 60F) when I got off the 1st plane, but became chilly after the sun set.
The highlight of my day was this in my snack box...a milk chocolate dipped shortbread cookie from Big Island Candies.
It was nice to be home for two months. I got to spend some quality time with my parents, grandma, relatives and some friends.
Hopefully my luggage which I sent from the 1st airport comes safely tomorrow. Thanks Satoshi for letting me go home every year!
welcome back!
ReplyDeleteKat, welcome back!!
ReplyDeleteIt's so nice to know you got a chance to go back home and spend time with your family.
Hugs,
Mari
Glad to hear you made it home safely! It's been two months already? Wow!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back to Japan!
ReplyDeleteHow come two plane rides?
welcome to your second home! It will feel unsettled for a few days for sure!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rowena, Mari, Jenny, Nate & Bea!
ReplyDeleteI had to take two planes because United doesn't fly from Kansai any more, Nate, since I am a frequent flyer with them, I flew out from Narita.
Take care everyone!
