Friday, Sept. 30th
After a lovely 12 hour airplane ride to Japan, we made it. All of us were in an exceptionally good mood, even though Zee Dub (Zach Wilson) stared at the seat in front of him and listened to his iPod all 12 hours�ouch, sorry ZW. Keith and Sharon sat a few rows in front of us, and I think Keith slept almost the entire trip (with the little eye cover thing over his eyes). A few rows back was Robin, and I don�t know why he was back there (maybe a racist airlines�;-), but he just finished a monster-thick book! Zac G. laughed a lot, talked a lot, slept a lot, and watched movies a lot. You can do a lot of things in 12 hours. JHouse�what can you say, but �JHouse�. He entertains himself - and us - with hilarious comments and facial expressions. Me? I slept and read and laughed.

*Robert Orr was not on our flight. He met us in Japan, but he came in on the Northwest airlines plane that has TV�s in the back of every seat with PVRs. Which means you can watch anything at anytime on your own TV screen. Hello!
