In Japan Again

[Friday 3rd March]
My flight was a bit delayed, so we landed around 5:30 PM. Luckily passport control, baggage reclaim and customs were all running very smoothly, and I was on a train leaving the airport by just after 6. Two of my colleagues from the US, plus the guy I had been sitting next to on the plane, all got on the same train. So we had an impromptu meeting about business strategy and so on over a couple of beers, whilst hurtling along towards central Tokyo. I felt a superficial sense of importance, being part of this group of high powered businessmen, but in reality I didn't understand half of what they were banging on about.

I got to Shinjuku station at around 7:45, and Chie was there to meet me on the platform, which was really nice. We went for a quick dinner - to the branch of Great India near Shinjuku station, then headed home. I was pretty much falling asleep on the way back even as I was walking along. We were back home around 9, and after a brief omiyage session (souvenirs) I went and fell in a heap, and was asleep within minutes.

John, can you send me a mail again with you schedule and new phone numbers? I haven't got my laptop till mid next week and all the data was in there... thanks... :P
