And We’re Off….to Dallas?!

Yup, that’s right. The first night of this epic journey finds us at a Holiday Inn in Dallas, TX. Kinda anti-climactic isn’t it? Oh well, it means we’re finally off and it’ll make for a pretty funny story later. Next step is the flight to Tokyo, a quick little 13.5 hour jaunt over the Pacific Ocean. My sister is with me for this flight (she’s along for the first two weeks in Japan) so I’ve got someone to play cards with and I promised to teach her some basic Japanese before we land.

Sorry for the lack of pictures with this short little update, the next one will be from Tokyo and there will be pictures, I promise.

See you in Japan!
