Let's Do The Time Warp Again: Finally Home

Here it is! The final blog post. Jet lag sucks, but I am finally home! I just wanted to put up some pictures and relay the story of the epic plane journey....ugh.

So here's Osaka and Kyoto, Tokyo Disney Sea, Tokyo Disneyland, and Tokyo in general with my family. Yay!

So the journey home...the plane ride back, 12.5 hours because we were flying in the jetstream, wasn't that bad...a little turbulent, but not really bad. I can't sleep on planes, so I wanted 5.5 movies instead. I watched Men of Valor, Jeff Who Lives at Home, Up in the Air, The Vow, Megamind, and half of Stardust before my eyes started to feel like they were falling out of their sockets. Unfortunately, there was still about an hour and a half at that point, so I restlessly tried to be comfortable for the remainder? Blah.

What was bad though was we had some kind of luggage packing problem before we left, so we left an hour later than we were supposed so, and because we were arriving in JFK this was a problem. It was a saving grace they didn't take our checked bags to put on the Columbus plane (somehow we didn't get checked in properly in Japan because we had two different bookings, so we had to wait in line again and stuff) because even if they did check us in properly we never would have made it through the ridiculous security and all the shenanigans to get to the plane. So we moved to a later, 7:15 plane (which the desk lady made it sound like she was doing us a huge favor by doing for free, because apparently an international flight being delayed has nothing to do with Delta and technically we should be paying a fee....ugh) and got some food and sat (I napped a bit) at the gate....

Then they announced they moved the gate, but luckily it was very nearby...although we didn't board until after the time we were supposed to take off anyway, idiot airport...

And then we were double-parked by a different airplane and then we were 16th in line to fly out, so we had to wait another half hour on that tarmac....

Then, when we arrived in Columbus, we had to wait another 10 minutes for an open gate (luckily, the flight attendant was the nicest flight attendant ever)...

THEN, when we got to the hotel, and walked up to our room, there was a do not disturb sign in the door. Mom and I heard movement inside.

Yeah.

So an adventure, as usual, but what an end right? I'm home!

Thank you all very much for reading my blog, I hope you enjoyed it!

The end!

Or the beginning?

  5. Woah! I'm really digging the template/theme of this website. It's simple, yet effective.

    A lot of times it's challenging to get that "perfect balance" between usability and visual appeal. I must say you've done a superb job with this.
    In addition, the blog loads very fast for me on
    Safari. Excellent Blog!

  9. I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own weblog and was curious what all is needed to get set up? I'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty
    penny? I'm not very web smart so I'm not 100% positive. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

  19. Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform you're using? I'm planning
    to start my own blog soon but I'm having a tough time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I'm looking
    for something completely unique. P.S Sorry for getting off-topic but I had to
    ask!

  26. Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the
    video to make your point. You obviously know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your
    weblog when you could be giving us something enlightening to read?
