Like one of my friends said, "You couldn't resist it could you?"
I'm back in the same Oakwoods residence, in a little studio room. Can't wait to explore some more this weekend. Not sure what I'll do exactly, but I'll figure it out soon.
Funny thing is next week is Golden Week. So most of the guys are out of the office from Wednesday. I guess I'll just have the office to myself. Woohoo! I do like the quiet time because I can get more work done without interruption.
I don't think I talked about the Friendly Limousine Bus last time. From the airport to Tokyo, I've been taking the Limousine Bus. It's pretty like riding on a Greyhound or coach bus, with air-condition and toilets. There's a system, and the guys and girls working at the bus stops are efficient and friendly. They look at your ticket. If your bus is the next stop, they tell you to stand in the first line. If your bus is the one after next, then you stand in the second line. If your bus is the next one, then they line up your luggage and put it under the bus when it arrives. You collect it when you arrive at your stop. The bus driver and luggage/ticket handlers are very polite. I love how they bow when the bus rolls up and leaves. Even if it isn't the bus coming to their stop, if they see it, they bow. One way trip on the Limousine Bus is 3000 yen. It takes about an hour from the airport to Tokyo. I take the ANA Hotel in Akasaka stop because it's close to the office and hotel. This time, I was so tired, I fell asleep on the bus. Good thing they have proper annoucements prior to arriving at the stop.
The previous week, I was in Austin. The weather was off and on. A few good warm days, but there were thunderstorms and hail during the week. I got a little hail damage on Thursday afternoon. I didn't even notice it until Sunday. Thursday night, I danced in the Sabaya show at Copa. Lots of friends showed up. Thanks for coming, ya'll! Friday morning, I drove to Hunt, Texas for dance camp (not band camp!). It was a nice drive. The weather was
super nice. In the evenings there were shows and camp fire with smores! The workshops were really good and the camp setting was really relaxing. I miss it already.
Til next time,
