We were up at 5.30am and on the train to Narita airport by 6.50am. Not our best time of the day, but the snooze on the Skyliner made up for some of the damp, early morning feeling. The JAL representative at the airport were fantastic about the "Jacket Saga" - it will be cleaned, again, here in Tokyo, and the flown to London where the JAL office will courier it to me in Sheffield. Could anyone complain at such service?
We checked in fast and that gave us hours to have breakfast before going through security and customs. Now it is just a few hour to departure, so we will haunt the duty free shops and by nothing ... as per ...
Fingers crossed, we will be in London this afternoon at about 4pm - always a bit odd having a the same hours over again!
Last night was a bit also a bit odd - two slight tremours and we were on the ninth floor. Everything seemed normal when we looked out of the windows, so we pretended were shaken, but not stirred. A new experience for all that ...
It's better to travel than arrive ... then again ...
