In this day of pre-purchase, I figured it would be ok to do a pre-trip Japan intro. We do start heading down to Vancouver tonight but burglars beware, we have a securty guard on standby as well as several dogs and cats. Last night, I felt like I was in the movie, "Alive". Maple took up half the bed, Megumi had secured a very nice spot in the centre and that left me with roughly 1/8 of the bed and a little less than 1/16 of the available blankets. I say the film, "Alive" because like the survivors of the Andes plane crash, I was sitting there freezing on the end with barely a whisper of a blanket. At one point, I said, "My name is David Schulte and I will survive" over and over as I shivered in the endless night. It at least got a laugh from Megumi.
I had a nap to take me through the drive toniight but in donig so, left myself roughly 3 hours to pack and get ready. Will not forget my passport! :) The dogs got depressed when Megumi was packing last night and they were in a funk today when they saw me getting ready too. They know something is up. In other news, My "Just Another Pretty Face" song on www.homegrownhits.com is at #7 on the pop charts and the others do well on the country charts too but are rapidly falling on the overall charts. I just heard Coring Raymond hit his total for the Canadian Tire Money and that Bryan Lee helped him over the top. Congratulations Corin for inspiring us all to dream. I think I will go ahead and open up that ballet studio in the basement of my house afterall. :)
I will miss several birthdays on this trip but do look forward to meeting old friends and family again. It has been 10 years and very excited to see the changes good or bad that time has brought to Sendai.
