Finally in f’ing Tokyo.
Oh man, what a day, what a day.
We left our hotel in hartford at 4.45am, came to the airport and everything ran smooth, we borded and the flight left in time, so far so good. Somewhere around “almost-in-chicago”, we got the news that o’hare was closed due to thunderstorm, so we circled the area for an hour before landing in Detroit to pick up more gas.. took us 3 hours to do that. Finally in the air and then landed in Chicago, our 2h flight had taken 7h.. f’ing yay™.
This meant that everything at O’hare this splendid day was delayed, and so was our ride to Narita. But hey, after a few hours waiting, we got going and sat down in monkey-class for some homoerotic 13h adventure! :(
The flight between Chicago and Narita wasn’t that bad actually, not as bad as a flight in monkey-class between Copenhagen and Bangkok.
We’re now at the hotel in Shinjuku (yeah, this time it’s shinjuku, not shibuya), and eating some fresh sushi and drinking some asahi’s :D The trip only took like 27 hours >_< I'll be twittering ever so often from here (well, if I find open networks, since I have an old iPhone, and everything here is that mad new cool thing they call 3G). So, keep an eye on that.
Anyways, food is done and beer has been drunken (ehm, you know what I mean), so now I’ll hit the f’ing sack. Talk to you later.
OH! Fuck O’Hare btw :)
You got a communication failure, no GSM in Japan. Just 3G. :-þ

Those of us living in Chicago were not pleased with the Thunderstorm/Tornadoes last night either. Especially those of us having to wait for the bus.

Man, I feel your pain about O’Hare. I’ve been there many times and dear god is it ever a bitch!
So, no lay-overs between O’Hare and Narita? Way to go… I understand that’s expensive to travel from the States to Narita non-stop.
Have fun in Tokyo!

Enjoy your stay in Shinjuku, it’s a nice city. I’m living about an hour away from there at the moment. I don’t know if you know this, but it is Summer Holiday here. Most people are off work for a week, or at least 3 days the next week. I’m leaving for Kyoto on Sunday :)
Have fun!
