Japan 1/13
After a two-hour delay due to what turned out to be a medical emergency requiring a stop in Anchorage, we're finally in the air and allowed to bring our trays down and all that jazz. I've already met one of my co-counselors, Meghan Something. She's quite nice, and has been a lot of help in answering my question about the program (she was in it for the whole summer last year). She's currently a geography student, and after 4 years on the synchronized swimming team she's going to spend her last year on a different team - I forgot which (water polo?).
One of the pieces of good news I heard abou the trip is that the hotel we'll be staying at in Nagasaki [I think I meant Fukuoka] is real near the train station, which is in turn near a shopping mall-ish area where I'll have time for some shopping. Apparently she also knows of a beach nearby [I think this part referred to Nagasaki], and I made sure to pack my simming suit. :) [We never went to the beach.]
I'm not so sure I should have bought these earrings though. [Earrings that I lost somewhere along the way. ^^; I would literally lose my head if it weren't attached.]
Oh yes, there are also two people in my four-seat row. Score!
