Tadaima!!!: Retroactive Post

Some of you may know that I was going to Kyoto this weekend with my aunt and uncle since it was Golden Week, and everyone gets a few days off for the holidays, which is why I've been out of contact the last few days. We went and it was absolutely amazing. It was so neat to be in another Japanese city. I told my aunt later that for some reason, as we were exiting the shinkansen that we had taken from Nagoya to Kyoto, that I was expecting Kyoto to be very different from Nagoya. The one big difference is that Kyoto reminded me even more of Seattle than Nagoya, because it is hilly unlike Nagoya. But enough about that.

The point that I'm making is that I wanted to tell all of the few who have diligently followed my blogs depicting my various adventures as I've eaten, biked, shopped and sang my way through two months in Japan: Thank you. It's nice that you have taken the time out of your schedules to check up on me and keep in touch. Therefore, you will be the special few to be let in on a secret: SURPRISE! I came home early!

As I sit here typing this blog, I'm currently in the US! It wasn't planned, and completely last-minute. My aunt's work had allowed her to go and I decided that with the number of my relatives that are going to be in Seattle at one time, that I should go while I still have the opportunity, so here I am. However, we missed our flight from Tokyo to Seattle, so we had to catch another one from Tokyo to San Francisco. Now we've got problems with the one from San Fran to Seattle, so I'm waiting. But I'm getting home sometime today.

I miss all of you, but I'll see you soon! The one thing is that you MUST NOT LET MY FAMILY KNOW. I want to surprise them, so please don't call them, if you know their numbers. All right, see ya soon!
