Welcome to Japan
Well after the twelve and a half hour flight and the on plane swine flu inspection, I finally made it to the hotel in Tokyo. The inspection upon arrival was interesting, four Japanese health inspector sporting scrubs and face masks, walked the isles measuring out body heat with a heat gun. After it was detemined that the plane infact was not contaminated with swine flu, we were allowed to finally get off. The bus ride to the hotel from the airport was great, we got to see Disney Tokyo and alot of the city. We got to the Hotel and were welcomed by a few Japanese students. After a quick shower and getting over the fact that four of us are crammed into a tin can of a room, we went to a Japanese noodle vending machine. I got this fried chicken-soba noodle dish, it was really good. My game plan next time is to just to pick something random on the machine. There is no english on it at all so ill just have to hope its good. After some food, we went to Meiji Univeisity to see the view from the top floor. The best view happened to be from this huge window in the bathroom, ill post a picture in a bit, but we got to see a lot of the city. All the girls were in bed, except Michelle, so 10 guys squeezed into our miniature room and hung out for a while. We all went to bed around 11:30, and all woke up at 3 in the morning. It was tough to get used to this time difference. After a few hours of restless sleep, I decided to give up and come down to the cafe. Now im sitting on my computer, drinking a coffee, and getting excited about what the rest of this trip has to offer
