Greetings folks. Unfortunately this post is going to be short since I'm typing it from my iPhone. Apparently no one in LA believes in free Internet access. I've boarded my flight to Tokyo. Only 12 hours later than expected, but that's a story better saved for when I have proper Internet access. Suffice to say, complications have made the trip more interesting, but I expect to land in Tokyo about 13 hours from now. The time right now is 12:20 pacific Wish me luck!
