The Good, the Bad and the Steamy

The good: we're in Japan! Awesome flight, no problems with the connection (even had time to spare!) and couldn't be happier to be here. Had an awesome sushi dinner last night with Steve and Yoshimi, and had a fun day today touring around Izumo, tasting wine, and having conveyor belt sushi (sampled the Olympic menu, it was fantastic. So full now).

The bad: well, there's not really anything bad to report. :) It does get dark really early here though, which is weird. 7:30 and the sun is setting. What's up with that?

The steamy: it's hot here! The heat and humidity hit us like a wall the minute we stepped out of Narita. The air was so thick we could have cut it with a knife. We spent most of today in the air conditioned bliss of a museum, and otherwise it really wasn't to bad. It's kind of nice to be having a summer, finally!

Pictures soon, as soon as we get Erik's computer up and running. :)
