Tokyo Wrap

Back home in Edmonds, I've adjusted back to local time, adjusted to the cold weather and adjusted to being home instead of each day waking to a new day of traveling and sightseeing.

We had a good time in Japan and were fortunate to make it out last Friday evening just before the typhoon shut down transportation. Our flight from Narita to Seattle was scheduled for 1805. We pushed back a little after six then inched our way forward through heavy rain in the queue for take off. We finally got airborne forty-five minutes after leaving the gate. We rode the bumps up to 41,000 feet where we enjoyed a pleasant ride back to Seattle. The pilots made up most of the wait time so we arrived only 15 minutes after scheduled arrival.

We don't have any trips booked for the next few months so will try to visit some local attractions to see what interesting things want to appear in my blog. Maybe the winter views at the UW Japanese Garden might be forth a visit. Or maybe something even closer to home. I'll see what beckons.

Meanwhile, I'll remember this view of serenity and peace for when times are troubling or I feel disillusioned by the passing scene.
