The Journey So Far...

I am sitting in the NWA worldclubs lounge in Minneapolis, MN. (unlimited Dr. Pepper, I feel like Forrest Gump!)I am here until 3:05 PM when my plane leaves for Tokyo. After a minor security issue in Memphis this morning (my 8 tubes of deodorant raised a few eyebrows and my bag had to be opened and searched. Deodorant is not available in China so I wanted to make sure I had plenty on hand!), the first flight went over very smoothly. Next step is about 12 hours on a plane to Tokyo.

Here are some pictures of the trip so far: (more to come later today, keep checking!)
